1952 Map of Mount Hayes D-6

About this map

Glacial drainages and high mountain peaks dominate this interior Alaskan landscape as it appeared in the mid-twentieth century. The braided channel of the Little Delta River and its major tributaries, the West Fork and East Fork, create a complex network of gravel bars and shifting watercourses in the western half of the map. To the east, Delta Creek follows a similar alluvial path, fed by smaller streams like Ptarmigan Creek. Elevation is anchored by several prominent triangulation stations, including VABM 5932 Dyer and VABM 5322 Aux, which mark the high ridges above the valleys of Iowa Creek and Buchanan Creek. This map captures a pristine wilderness era before significant modern infrastructure reached these specific reaches of the Alaska-Fourth Judicial Division, preserving the original hydrography of these subarctic river systems.
