1960 Map of Nabesna D-4

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Tetlin Indian Reservation occupies the center of this landscape, where the meandering Tetlin River serves as a primary geographical artery through the interior. Surveyed in the mid-1950s and field-annotated in 1960, the map illustrates a transition between high alpine terrain and the lake-studded lowlands. Notable elevation changes are marked by Meiklejohn Pass in the northwest, while the presence of a Landing Strip near the river indicates the critical role of bush aviation in this roadless region. The network of waterways, including Moose Creek, Clearwater Creek, and Mice Creek, defines the drainage patterns of the Alaskan wilderness before more intensive modern development. This document also reflects the administrative landscape of the era, showing unsurveyed land lines predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management.
