1954 Map of Medfra A-5

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Kuskokwim River snakes across the southern portion of this mid-century Alaskan interior landscape, a primary waterway in a region dominated by vast drainage networks and isolated peaks. This 1954 survey, compiled from aerial photography, illustrates the complex hydrology of the Nixon River and its tributary, the Little Nixon River, which feed into the surrounding marshlands. High ground is marked by prominent landmarks such as Halfway Mountain and Appel Mtn, alongside the singular peak identified simply as Alone. The map documents the intricate web of smaller watercourses, including Broken Snowshoe Creek, Wabash Creek, and Grayling Creek, which define the topography before the era of modern development. These features provide a look at the wilderness state of the Fourth Judicial Division during a period of extensive federal topographic mapping in the territory.
