1950 Map of Mount Hayes

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Alaska Range dominates this mid-century reconnaissance, where glacial systems feed the powerful northern drainage of the Tanana River and the southward course of the Delta River. This 1950s documentation shows the vital overland corridors of the Richardson Highway and the Alaska Highway as they navigated a landscape defined by massive summits like Mt Hayes and Mt Kimball. For local historians and genealogists, the map preserves a network of essential interior outposts including Rapids Roadhouse and Millers Roadhouse, which served as critical stops for travelers and freight haulers in the era before modern infrastructure. These settlements, along with Paxson and Moochigan Lodge, reflect the logistical challenges of high-altitude habitation and the persistent human presence along the territory's early road system near the border of the Fourth Judicial Division and Third Judicial Division.
