1950 Map of Mount Hayes D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Fort Greely occupies a significant portion of this interior landscape, illustrating the military footprint in the Alaskan territory during the mid-twentieth century. The terrain is defined by the braided courses of the Delta River and Delta Creek, which dominate the eastern and western margins of the map. These massive glacial drainages are fed by high-altitude sources such as the Triden Glacier in the southern reaches. The intricate network of wetlands and smaller tributaries like Hayes Creek and Ptarmigan Creek highlights the complex hydrology of the Tanana Valley region. This 1950 data, gathered via aerial photography, captures a landscape of extreme relief and shifting riverbeds before significant modern infrastructure developments altered the access to these remote reaches.
