1953 Map of Melozitna A-4

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Melozitna River meanders through this interior Alaska wilderness, forming a complex network of oxbows and wetlands in the northern reaches. At the center of the survey lies the site of Melozi Springs (Aband), situated along the banks of Hot Springs Creek. This remote location, noted as abandoned by the mid-20th century, highlights the transitory nature of early settlements in the Alaskan bush. The landscape is dominated by the elevations of the Kokrines Hills in the southeast, where numerous drainages like Black Sand Creek and Turnaround Cr originate. These topographic features illustrate the intricate hydrologic patterns of the subarctic, where even minor creeks define the travel routes and land use of the era.
