1952 Map of Nulato B-4

About this map

The Kaiyuh Mountains dominate the southeastern landscape of this interior Alaska territory, where the high ridges of VABM Eddy 2750 overlook a vast network of wetlands and waterways. Life in this remote corridor in the early 1950s was defined by isolated outposts like the Cabin and Camp Creek settlements. Access was strictly dictated by the seasons and the terrain, evidenced by an Airstrip and a specialized Airstrip (Skis Only) suited for winter landings. Resource extraction is noted at a solitary Mine located near the headwaters of Coyote Creek. The intricate drainage patterns of Eddy Creek and Bonanza Creek reveal a landscape where water and elevation determine the only viable locations for human activity and transport in the Alaskan wilderness.
