1952 Map of Ruby C-5

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Ruby sits along the southern bank of the Yukon River at the northwestern corner of this interior Alaskan landscape, serving as a vital transportation and communication hub. The infrastructure of the mid-twentieth century is evident through the presence of a Landing Strip, a Gaging Sta, and Radio Towers positioned near the settlement. The surrounding terrain is defined by high points such as Cecil Dome and Boston Dome, while numerous waterways including Big Glacier Creek and Thirteenmile Creek carve through the wilderness. These interior drainage patterns are punctuated by scattered Cabins, indicating seasonal use or remote dwellings connected to the river and trail systems. To the south, prominent landmarks like Devils Thumb and Scow Mountain provide navigational reference points across the expansive network of creeks and gulches, including Fox Gulch and Dominion Creek.
