1954 Map of Sleetmute C-5

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Oskawalik River dominates this mid-century topographic record, winding through a landscape of wetlands and peaks in the Alaska interior. Surveyed in the early 1950s using photogrammetric methods from aerial photography, the map highlights the complex drainage patterns of the region, including Vreeland Creek and Eightmile Creek. A significant landmark on the sheet is Henderson Mtn, which rises above the surrounding river valley. The map is particularly notable for its depiction of unsurveyed and unmarked land lines as predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management at the time. These boundaries illustrate the administrative efforts to organize this remote territory before formal field checking was completed.
