1952 Map of Tanacross A-3

About this map

The Tetlin Indian Reservation dominates this 1950s interior landscape, characterized by the winding braided channels of the Tanana River and its complex network of tributaries. The Alaska Highway runs along the northern edge of the river valley, paralleled by a Pipe Line, representing the primary infrastructure of the era. Water is the defining feature of the terrain, from the broad expanse of Midway Lake to the meandering courses of the Tetlin River and the Kalutna River. Local geography is marked by isolated Cabins and prominent landmarks like Chisana Mountain. This survey, based on 1948 aerial photography, provides a clear view of the hydrological patterns of the Alaskan interior before modern development shifted the isolation of the upper Tanana valley.
