1952 Map of Ruby A-5

About this map

Sulatna Crossing and Tamarack serve as small focal points along the meandering Sulatna River during the early 1950s. This interior Alaskan landscape is defined by its drainage networks, where the river and its many tributaries, such as South Fork Sulatna River and Antoski Creek, dominate the terrain. A Winter Trail cuts across the northwest, providing a vital overland connection through the marshy lowlands and over the Sulatna Bluff. Evidence of industrial activity is present at the Strip Mine near Schist Creek, where an Aband marker indicates the shifting nature of resource extraction in the region. The map also features numerous survey markers like VABM 1420 Gold, highlighting the systematic effort to chart this territory. These named features, including Poorman Creek and Bonanza Creek, reflect a history of prospecting and seasonal transit in a remote riverine environment.
