1958 Map of Medfra D-1

About this map

The North Fork Kuskokwim River anchors the southeastern corner of this Alaskan interior landscape, where the vast drainage systems of the Sischu Mountains converge. Recorded during the mid-1950s, the map reveals a wilderness largely defined by its watercourses and elevation, with the Sethkokna River winding through the central valley. A single Cabin located near the headwaters of Sischu Creek and a primitive Winter Trail running north-south through the western foothills suggest the seasonal movements of trappers or indigenous travelers of the era.
