1952 Map of Nulato D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Nulato River and Gisasa River dominate this interior Alaskan landscape as it was documented in the early 1950s. The terrain is marked by high-altitude survey points like VABM 2462 Blind and VABM 2233 First, which stand as significant landmarks for the 1956 topographic mapping process. A remote Cabin and an Aband Telegraph Line provide rare evidence of human activity and communication infrastructure in this wilderness area. The drainage network is further defined by tributaries such as Woodyard Creek and Mukluk Creek, which carve through the dense contour lines of the Fourth Judicial Division. This sheet captures a transition point in frontier cartography, where aerial photography began to precisely reveal the complex waterway and ridge systems of the Yukon-Koyukuk region.
