1954 Map of Medfra C-5

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Nowitna River and Susulatna River dominate this interior landscape, which was documented through aerial photography in the early to mid-1950s. The map represents a purely natural terrain, as the land lines were unsurveyed and unmarked at the time of publication, having been predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management. The topography is defined by the winding paths of these two major waterways and a complex network of small lakes and ponds scattered across the lowlands. This survey illustrates the wild character of the Yukon-Koyukuk region before any roads or permanent infrastructure reached this section of the interior, serving as a baseline for the hydrologic patterns and undisturbed landforms of the mid-twentieth century.
