1955 Map of Mount Hayes C-2

About this map

The braided channels of the Johnson River dominate this interior Alaskan landscape, illustrating the dynamic hydrology of the region as it cuts through the Tanana River valley. Along the northern edge, the corridor for the Alaska Highway is established, accompanied by logistical infrastructure including a Bureau of Public Roads Camp and an aboveground pipeline. These features reflect the mid-century development of the Alaskan wilderness for transportation and resource transit. The terrain rises sharply from the river flats to high-altitude features like Independent Ridge and the expansive Macomb Plateau. Waterways such as Pegmatite Creek and Prospect Creek drain these uplands, while Moosehead Lake sits in the northeast corner. The map provides a detailed view of the interaction between natural barriers and the thin line of human engineering during the territorial era.
