1954 Map of Ophir D-2

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Innoko River dominates this mid-1950s landscape, winding through a complex system of oxbow lakes and wetlands in the Alaskan interior. The river's serpentine path is mirrored by its major tributary, the North Fork, and the smaller Slow Creek, which cut through the lower elevations. While the majority of the terrain is characterized by these dense water networks and intermittent forest cover, the high ground is marked by prominent elevations such as Crown. Evidence of human presence is sparse but significant, with the settlement of Jones and a solitary Cabin situated near the edges of the river valley. This survey reflects the region during a period of photogrammetric mapping, capturing the exact state of the shifting waterways and identifying remote landmarks that served as vital navigation points in the Yukon-Koyukuk wilderness.
