1954 Map of Mt. Hayes D-1

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Lake George and its surrounding watershed dominate this mid-century topographic record of the Alaska interior. The landscape is defined by the braided path of George Creek and the intricate drainage patterns of Sand Lake and Sand Creek. Based on 1954 aerial photography, the survey illustrates a wilderness area devoid of established roads or trails during this period. The terrain is precisely measured through triangulation stations such as VABM George 3360, which provides a literal high point for the geographic data. This map captures the region in a state of natural transition, showing the complex interaction between glacial runoff and the formation of temporary water bodies and creek beds before later development altered these remote drainages.
