1952 Map of Mount McKinley

About this map

Mt Mc Kinley and the massive Alaska Range dominate the southern half of this landscape, showing the complex glacial systems of the mid-20th century. The ice-covered peaks, including North Peak, Mt Silverthrone, and Mt Brooks, feed immense ice flows such as the Muldrow Glacier and Foraker Glacier. To the north, the terrain transitions into a labyrinth of waterways where the Foraker River and Kantishna River meander toward Lake Minchumina.
