1948 Map of Tanacross B-5

USGS Topo · Published 1996

About this map

Tanacross and the nearby Tanacross Airfield serve as the focal point of this 1948 Alaskan interior landscape, situated at the confluence of the Tanana River and the winding Little Tanana Slough. The area represents a critical intersection of post-war transportation, where the Alaska Highway meets the historic Eagle Trail. This junction signifies the transition from the river-and-trail-dependent era to the modern highway system that defined mid-century development in the Interior.
