1950 Map of Solomon D-3

About this map

The Fish River dominates this landscape on the Seward Peninsula, winding through a complex network of tributaries and seasonal waterways at mid-century. Several Cabins are situated along its banks, suggesting the localized subsistence or small-scale mining activity common to this region of the Alaska interior. The confluence of the Pargon River and the braided channels of Steamboat Slough reveal a highly dynamic aquatic environment where water levels shifted with the seasons. Overland transit was largely restricted to the Winter Trail, reflecting the isolation of the area before modern road development. This route connects various drainages, including California Creek and Slate Creek, providing essential access to high ground near Mt Wick. A remote Landing Strip further emphasizes the reliance on bush aviation to reach these interior drainages during the short summer months.
