1959 Map of Medfra

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Kuskokwim River drainage and the surrounding Alaskan interior define this 1959 survey, highlighting the remote settlements of Medfra and Nikolai along the water's edge. The landscape is a complex network of glacial rivers and mountain ranges, including the Sischu Mountains and Sunshine Mts. One can trace the historic Winter Trail as it cuts across the lowlands, providing a vital connection through the subarctic terrain. To the north, the small settlement of Poorman sits near the headwaters of the Sulatna River, while the southern reaches are dominated by the winding paths of the Nixon Fork and Tonzona River. This era of mapping captured the region before significant modern development, documenting family-named landmarks like Von Frank Mountain and Wilson Hill alongside numerous unnamed lakes and swampy flats that characterize the Interior's vast river basins.
