1952 Map of Nulato B-1

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Fork River dominates this mid-century topographical study, its complex, winding path creating a dense network of oxbows and marshlands as it moves through the Interior Alaskan wilderness. This specific survey, derived from 1952 aerial photography, captures the intricate hydrology of the Fork River basin during a period when much of this region remained unmapped on the ground. The absence of roads, trails, or human settlements emphasizes the isolation of the Yukon-Koyukuk terrain during the early 1950s. The map serves as a primary record of the natural drainage patterns and elevation profiles of the high ridges and low-lying river valleys, providing an essential resource for understanding the undisturbed geography of the Alaskan Interior before modern development or environmental shifts altered the waterway's course.
