1948 Map of Tanacross B-5

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Tanacross sits along the northern banks of the winding Tanana River, serving as a central hub for the interior transportation networks that defined mid-century Alaska. This 1948 survey, published decades later, illustrates the critical intersection of the Alaska Highway and the Glenn Highway as they converge near the Tanacross Airfield. The landscape is dominated by complex water systems, including the braidings of the Tanana Slough and Little Tanana Slough, which stand in contrast to the high peaks of the Alaska Range and Mount Neuberger in the southwest.
