1954 Map of Medfra C-5

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Susulatna River winds through the northwestern corner of this interior Alaskan landscape, which was photogrammetrically surveyed in the mid-1950s. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainage and muskeg, with the Nowitna River branching across the central and eastern sections. In the southeast, the topography rises sharply into the Sunshine Mountains, providing a stark contrast to the surrounding water-logged lowlands. This survey reflects a wilderness state before any established road or trail infrastructure was recorded, showing an intricate natural drainage pattern that dictates the character of this subarctic environment. The map captures the area exactly as it appeared when field annotated in 1954, serving as a primary record of the land prior to modern development or naming of smaller geographic features.
