1952 Map of Ruby B-1

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Titna River carves a complex, meandering path across this interior Alaskan landscape, defining the central geography of the Ruby region as it appeared in the early 1950s. The river is surrounded by extensive wetlands and swampy lowlands, with the Telstina River and Big Mud River contributing to a dense hydrologic network. These waterways were the primary conduits for travel and subsistence in an era before established road networks reached this portion of the territory. Evidence of seasonal or remote habitation is found at Cabins along the northern banks of the Titna, likely serving as trapper or hunter outposts. The eastern edge of the map is defined by the Kateel River Meridian, while Baker Creek drains the southeastern corner, reflecting the remote and largely unpopulated character of the Yukon-Koyukuk frontier during the mid-twentieth century.
