1950 Map of Mt. Hayes A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Clearwater Mountains define the northern reaches of this interior landscape, where the braided channels of the Maclaren River and West Fork navigate a complex basin of glacial lakes and marshy lowlands. Surveyed at mid-century, the map documents a transition in transportation as the Denali Highway cuts through the southern terrain, providing access to the remote wilderness near Crazy Notch. Evidence of seasonal travel and early infrastructure is visible through the presence of a Sled Road and the established Campground near Oso Creek. The isolation of the era is underscored by the sparse human footprints, including a lonely Lodge and scattered family-named water bodies like Petrokov Lake and Glaser Lake. These features together reveal a region being mapped just as modern road access began to alter its historical character.
