1952 Map of Talkeetna Mountains D-1

About this map

The Susitna River winds through this high-altitude wilderness, joined by the Maclaren River and several major tributaries in a complex network of glacial drainage. Mapped from 1949 aerial photography, the landscape is defined by its extreme isolation and the presence of prominent survey markers like Vabm 3716 Sumaridason and Vabm 3299 Coal. The terrain is characterized by numerous small lakes and ponds scattered across the basins of Clearwater Creek and Coal Creek, reflecting the post-glacial geography of the Alaska-Third Judicial Division before modern infrastructure reached this interior region.
