1954 Map of Mount McKinley B-1

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

McKinley National Park is defined by its massive ice fields and high-altitude crossings in this mid-century survey of the interior. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling Muldrow Glacier and Sunset Glacier, which carve through peaks like Mt Eielson and Scott Peak. Transportation through the interior is limited to the winding McKinley Park Road, which provides access to the Eielson Visitors Center and key vantage points such as Stony Hill Overlook. The terrain is characterized by high passes that connect remote drainage basins, including Thorofare Pass, Highway Pass, and Anderson Pass. The drainage network, featuring the Thorofare River and Moose Creek, illustrates the active glacial runoff that continues to shape the topography of the Alaska Range.
