1955 Map of Mount Hayes C-2

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Alaska Highway cuts across the northern interior of this 1950s Alaskan landscape, serving as the primary corridor for transportation and communication. Infrastructure of the mid-century is prominently marked, including a Highway Maintenance Station and an Aboveground Pipeline running parallel to a Telephone Line near Johnson Slough. The terrain is defined by the braided channels of the Tanana River and the Johnson River, which drain the high elevations of Macomb Plateau and Independent Ridge. Local features like a Gravel Pit and several remote lakes, such as Craig Lake and Lisa Lake, suggest the logistical demands of maintaining routes through this subarctic environment. The presence of the Fairbanks Meridian and unsurveyed land lines highlight the era's ongoing effort by the Bureau of Land Management to formalize the geography of the Alaska Territory.
