1955 Map of Mount Hayes D-3

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Fort Greely Military Reservation dominates the northern half of this mid-century Alaskan landscape, sliced through by the vital corridor of the Alaska Highway. This survey captures a moment when post-war infrastructure began to define the interior, showing the highway as a primary artery across a network of drainage systems like Sawmill Creek and Rhoads Creek. To the south, the topography shifts abruptly into the high elevations of the Granite Mountains, where distinctive landmarks such as Panoramic Peak, Jagged Mountain, and the Boulder Plateau rise above the glacial valleys. The presence of the Winter Trail near the Gerstle River illustrates the seasonal nature of movement in this subarctic environment, while labels like Hajdukovich Creek hint at the local human history tied to specific waterways and mountain approaches.
