1952 Map of Mt. Hayes A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The Maclaren River corridor dominates this high-altitude Alaskan landscape, where a sprawling network of braided glacial streams and kettle ponds characterizes the valley floor. In the early 1950s, the only evidence of human infrastructure is the Sled Road that follows the West Fork before crossing the river toward the east. This route represents a vital winter transport corridor through the wilderness, connecting remote drainages such as Clearwater Creek and Coal Creek. The terrain is marked by significant topographical markers like VABM 5906 Little, providing a glimpse into the survey efforts of the mid-20th century. The intricate drainage patterns of Little Clearwater Creek and its many unnamed tributaries illustrate the complex hydrology of this subarctic environment prior to modern development.
