1955 Map of Nabesna C-1

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Alaska Highway cuts across the northeastern portion of this territory, serving as a vital link between the United States Canada border and the interior. Along this corridor, essential traveler outposts like the Seaton Roadhouse and the Border City Trading Post appear alongside the Scotty Creek Lodge, marking the mid-century infrastructure of the far north. To the west, the landscape is defined by the expansive braided channels of the Chisana River as it flows past the Black Hills. This survey highlights the era of post-war development in the subarctic, showing the coordination of the Telephone Line and Aboveground Pipeline following the highway route. The map documents a transition from traditional land use, represented by the High Cache, to the mechanized transport and communication networks essential for modern Alaskan settlement.
