1955 Map of Nabesna C-2

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Black Hills dominate this mid-century Alaskan landscape, rising above a complex network of muskeg and glacial waters in the Fourth Judicial Division. In the southeast corner, the Chisana River cuts through the lowlands, while the western portion of the map is defined by a dense cluster of lakes, including Takomahto Lake, Jatahmund Lake, and Tahahmund Lake. A single Trail is the only marked indicator of human transit across this terrain, tracing a path through the northern hills near the lake region. The survey, compiled from 1954 aerial photography, illustrates a wilderness at the height of the Cold War era, where drainage patterns like Stuver Creek dictate the logic of the land. This map provides a detailed view of the natural topography before the onset of modern infrastructure, recording the specific contours of a remote interior waterway system.
