1949 Map of Nabesna D-6

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Mentasta Pass serves as a critical corridor through the landscape, marking a transition between the drainages of Mentasta Creek and the headwaters of the Slana River. This 1940s-era topography reveals a remote interior Alaska where transportation relied heavily on the Glenn Highway and the historic Eagle Trail. A lone Lodge and an adjacent Landing Strip represent the sparse human footprint in this wilderness, situated near the complex hydrology of Slana Slough.
