1952 Map of Mt. Hayes D-5

About this map

Delta River and Delta Creek dominate this 1952 topographic study, showing the intricate drainage patterns of the Alaska-Fourth Judicial Division. Surveyed just after World War II using aerial photography from 1949, the map reveals a landscape defined by braided riverbeds and high-elevation glacial runoff. The intricate contour lines trace the ascent toward the mountain peaks, capturing the unpopulated wilderness before significant modern infrastructure reached this interior region. Notable features like Ptarmigan Creek offer precise points of reference for those studying the natural hydrology and topographical changes in the area during the mid-twentieth century.
