1954 Map of Tanacross A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Alaska Highway serves as the primary artery through this interior landscape in the mid-1950s, connecting isolated outposts like the Beaver Creek Roadhouse and the Northway Junction area. Near the junction of the Nabesna River and the Tanana River, traveler services such as the Northway Motel are established along the road corridor. This survey also records industrial infrastructure essential to the era's development, including an Aboveground Pipeline running parallel to the highway and local Gravel Pits. Away from the road, the terrain is defined by the winding course of the South Fork Ladue River and the marshy lowlands surrounding Steve Lake and Moose Cr, illustrating the contrast between the nascent highway system and the untouched wilderness of the Alaska interior.
