1952 Map of Ruby B-6

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Yuki Mountain stands as a prominent landmark in this interior Alaskan wilderness, overlooking a drainage system defined by the Sulatna River and its numerous tributaries. The landscape is marked by the presence of industrial activity from the mid-20th century, particularly visible through the Strip Mine and a Placer Mine located in the eastern portion of the survey. Transportation in this remote environment relied heavily on aviation, evidenced by the primary Landing Strip and the specialized Greenstone Landing Strip near the confluence of Creek 2 and Greenstone Creek. These small outposts and scattered Cabins suggest a seasonal or industrial settlement pattern typical of the era's mining frontier. Waterways like Long Creek and Fifth of July Creek carve through the terrain, illustrating the complex hydrology of the region before significant modern development altered the land.
