1951 Map of Talkeetna Mountains A-2

About this map

The Oshetna River and Little Oshetna River dominate this high-altitude landscape of the Talkeetna Mountains as it appeared in the early 1950s. This unpopulated terrain is defined by complex drainage networks and significant topographic transitions, notably at Horsepasture Pass and Limestone Gap. The map captures a moment when the interior remained largely untouched by roads or trails, with place names often reflecting early prospecting or geographical identifiers like Gold Creek, Conglomerate Creek, and Mazuma Creek.
