1954 Map of Melozitna B-3

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Melozitna River meanders across a vast wetland plain in this interior Alaska landscape, providing a sharp contrast to the high, unglaciated terrain of the Kokrines Hills to the south. The mapping, based on 1952 aerial photography, captures a wilderness defined by its complex drainage systems where the West Fork and Wolf Creek gather from the slopes of Wolf Mountain. The lack of any marked roads or permanent settlements in this mid-century survey emphasizes the seasonal and itinerant nature of land use in the region. Notable hydrological features like Hot Springs Creek suggest the thermal activity characteristic of this part of the Yukon-Koyukuk region, while the North Fork and Big Creek provide further evidence of the dense network of waterways that once served as the primary transit corridors for miners and indigenous travelers alike.
