1955 Map of Mount Hayes A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Chistochina Glacier and Robertson Glacier dominate the northern terrain of this 1950s survey, marking a landscape defined by massive ice flows and deep crevasses. High peaks like Mt Kimball overlook a network of watercourses including the West Fork Chistochina River and the Middle Fork Chistochina River. This area represents a mid-century period of interior Alaskan resource extraction, evidenced by the Chisna Placer Mine and several mines tucked into rugged gulches like Miller Gulch and Ruby Gulch. Remote outposts such as Dempsey and various cabins are linked by a primitive Tractor Trail, while a sawmill and an airstrip near Trout Lake suggest the infrastructure required for life and industry in the eastern Alaska Range. The map also delineates the boundary between the Fourth Judicial Division and the Third Judicial Division.
