1955 Map of Nabesna C-1

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Alaska Highway cuts through the northeast corner of this territory in the mid-1950s, serving as a vital artery between the United States and Canada. This remote landscape is defined by the braided channels of the Chisana River and the extensive wetlands surrounding Scottie Creek. Small outposts like the Border City Trading Post and Scotty Creek Lodge mark the international boundary, providing essential services in the Interior. The map details early infrastructure including an aboveground Pipeline and a Telephone Line that run parallel to the highway. Terrain features like Airs Hill and the Black Hills rise above the complex network of lakes and marshes, such as Mirror Lake and Island Lake. Historical waypoints like the Seaton Roadhouse and High Cache further illustrate the early motorized travel and transport era in this subarctic region.
