1955 Map of Mount Hayes

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Fort Greely dominates the northern landscape near the confluence of the Delta River and the Tanana River in this mid-century survey. The terrain transitions from the high peaks of the Granite Mountains and massive glaciers surrounding Mount Hayes to the braided river valleys and sloughs below. Transportation is a primary theme of the map, with the Alaska Highway and Richardson Highway intersecting as vital lifelines for the region. Small settlements and specialized locations like Black Rapids, Donnelly, and the Dot Lake Indian Village are plotted alongside historical routes such as the Tractor Trail. The intersection of modern infrastructure and indigenous presence is clear, evidenced by the inclusion of the Dot Lake Indian Village along the highway and the remote Dempsey station to the south, highlighting the area's strategic and logistical importance during the post-war era.
