1956 Map of Melozitna C-2

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Melozitna River winds through a vast complex of wetlands and oxbow lakes in this interior Alaskan wilderness, recorded during aerial surveys in the mid-1950s. The landscape is defined by the sharp contrast between the saturated lowlands of the river basin and the surrounding uplands, including the Kokrines Hills to the south. Tributaries such as the Little Indian River and Bacon Creek feed into the main channel, illustrating the drainage patterns of a region untouched by permanent roads or settlements. High-elevation survey points like VABM 3214 Flat and VABM 1803 Burnt indicate the remote nature of this terrain, where mapmakers relied on photogrammetric methods to document the unsurveyed and unmarked land lines of the Kateel River Meridian.
