1950 Map of Nabesna

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Mentasta Mountains and the Wrangell Mountains dominate this 1950s survey of eastern Alaska, where the high peaks of the interior meet the international boundary. The landscape is defined by massive ice fields like the Nabesna Glacier and Chisana Glacier, which feed a complex network of glacial rivers including the Nabesna River and Tanana River. Remote settlements and seasonal encampments such as Mentasta Lake, Nabesna Village, Chisana, and Batzulnetas are scattered across the terrain, often connected only by air or pack trails.
