1954 Map of Mt. McKinley B-1

About this map

Muldrow Glacier dominates the western portion of this high-altitude landscape, a frozen river of ice that shapes the surrounding topography within Denali National Park. Based on surveys from the mid-1950s, the map highlights the infrastructure of the wilderness area, specifically the Denali Park Road as it winds through Thorofare Pass toward the Eielson Visitors Center. The intricate glacial drainage systems are clearly defined, showing the headwaters of the Thorofare River and numerous creeks such as Moose Creek and Stony Creek.
