1952 Map of Melozitna D-1

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Indian River flows through the northwestern portion of this remote interior Alaska landscape, providing the primary drainage for a region characterized by complex stream systems and isolated uplands. Data for this sheet was primarily gathered from 1952 aerial photography, depicting the territory before the statehood era. The terrain is marked by significant features such as the Calamity upland and the winding paths of Big Creek, Sithdondit Creek, and Tobatokh Creek. The area is geographically anchored by the Kateel River Meridian, which serves as the principal reference for the unsurveyed land lines predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management. The lack of roads or established trails throughout the quadrangle highlights the wilderness character of the Yukon-Koyukuk region at mid-century, where the natural waterway network dictated the only viable routes through the interior.
