1951 Map of Mount Hayes

About this map

Glacial ice and high-altitude terrain dominate the Alaska Range in this mid-century reconnaissance, where the Delta River and Tanana River valleys dictate the path of human infrastructure. The survey highlights the essential role of highway stops in the interior, marking Rapids Roadhouse, Millers Roadhouse, and Moochigan Lodge along the Richardson Highway. These outposts, along with the settlement of Paxson near Summit Lake, represent the critical network supporting travel through Isabel Pass.
