1960 Map of Nabesna C-4

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

The Mentasta Mountains dominate this 1960 Alaska landscape, providing the high-altitude drainage for a complex system of glacial and mountain waterways. The northern slopes fall within the Tetlin National Wildlife Refuge, while the southern reaches are preserved as part of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve. The hydrography of the region is centered on the broad course of the Nabesna River and the winding Cheslina River, with smaller features like Mineral Springs and Soda Lake indicating the distinct geology of the interior. Human presence is minimal, recorded only through a remote Cabin and a network of transit routes including a Pack Trail and a Tractor Trail. These paths follow the natural contours of the Tellin River and Totschunda Creek, showing the limited but vital infrastructure used for wilderness travel before the turn of the century.
