1959 Map of Nabesna A-1

About this map

Beaver Creek and the Alaska Yukon border define this high-altitude landscape as it was documented in the late 1950s. The terrain is dominated by the massive Carl Glacier to the west, feeding a complex drainage system that includes Snag Creek, East Fork, and the winding Baultoff Creek. This remote stretch of the United States Canada boundary shows the practicalities of wilderness travel, with the Winter Trail cutting through the northern section and the Eureka Gulch Trail navigating the southeast near Braye Lakes. A single Cabin and a remote Landing Strip near the confluence of the Little Horsfeld Creek and Beaver Creek represent the only signs of human infrastructure, highlighting the extreme isolation of this frontier region during the mid-century surveying era.
