1954 Map of Medfra A-5

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Kuskokwim River anchors the southern boundary of this Alaskan interior landscape, where the winding watercourse and its tributaries define the remote terrain. This 1954 survey, based on aerial photography from the early 1950s, reveals a wilderness largely devoid of permanent human infrastructure, dominated instead by the complex drainage systems of the Nixon Fork and several named creeks. Elevated landmarks like Halfway Mountain and Alone serve as critical vertical control points for the U.S. Geological Survey in an era when land lines were predetermined but remained unsurveyed on the ground. The intricate networks of Broken Snowshoe Creek and Grayling Creek showcase the dense, marshy lowlands typical of the Yukon-Koyukuk region before more modern developments altered the access to these remote reaches.
