1954 Map of Melozitna B-4

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Melozitna River snakes through the center of this Interior Alaska landscape, characterized by a complex network of oxbow lakes and wetlands. Surveyed in the mid-1950s using aerial photography, the map reveals an untouched wilderness where drainage patterns dictate the terrain. The Dutbi River enters from the northwest, contributing to a broad, saturated basin before joining the primary waterway. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, Big Creek cuts through the more elevated, contour-rich topography. This 1954 field-annotated record serves as a precise baseline for the hydraulic geography of the Yukon-Koyukuk region, capturing the natural state of these river systems before modern environmental shifts.
