1952 Map of Mount McKinley B-2

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Wonder Lake and the surrounding wilderness of the Alaska interior are documented here during the early 1950s, shortly after the height of postwar expansion in the territory. The landscape is defined by the massive, braided course of the Mc Kinley River and the sprawling Muldrow Glacier, which dominates the southeastern quadrant. This topography reflects a period before the park was renamed, when the Denali Highway provided the primary motorized access through this remote terrain.
