1955 Map of Mount Hayes B-2

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Glacial ice and high-altitude drainage systems dominate this mid-century survey of the Alaska interior. The Johnson Glacier and Kimball Glacier feed a network of cold-water streams, including the Johnson River and Elting Creek, which carve through the high terrain before reaching the lower valleys. This map shows the landscape as it was documented in the mid-1950s, highlighting the expansive Crevasses and ice fields that defined the region before modern climatic shifts. The eastern portion of the quadrangle is marked by the West Fork Robertson River and the massive Robertson Glacier, providing a detailed look at the hydrological divide along the Copper River Meridian. Without established roads or settlements at the time of the survey, the map focuses on the raw physical geography and named landmarks like Sandslide Creek.
