1954 Map of Medfra A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Nixon Fork Takotna River winds through a vast complex of wetlands and low-relief terrain in this mid-century Alaskan interior survey. The landscape is defined by the contrast between the braided water systems and prominent topographical markers such as Cloudy Mountain to the northwest and Appel Mountain in the southeast corner. A notable human element is the Winter Trail, which traces a path through the eastern lowlands, suggesting the seasonal movement patterns essential for navigating this environment before permanent road infrastructure. Smaller drainages like Ivy Creek, Broken Snowshoe Creek, and John Reek Creek feed into the central river basin, while Porcupine Ridge stands as a significant boundary along the southern edge of the quadrangle. This map captures the region's hydrography and elevation before modern changes, documented through aerial photography from the early 1950s.
