1952 Map of Russian Mission D-1

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Owhat River winds through the southwestern reaches of this interior landscape, a region defined by its seasonal access and mineral potential in the early 1950s. The topographic detail, derived from aerial photography by the U.S. Geological Survey and USCE, highlights the prominence of Molybdenum Mountain, which stands as a central landmark amidst the varied elevations. Navigation through this terrain was largely dependent on the Winter Trail, reflecting the importance of seasonal routes for travel and subsistence in this part of the Seward Meridian. East of the mountain, Cobalt Creek drains towards the lower elevations, illustrating the hydrological patterns of a territory that remained largely unsurveyed and unmarked on the ground at the time of this 1952 field annotation.
