1956 Map of Tanana B-3

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Yukon River cuts a wide path through this interior Alaska landscape, serving as the primary geographical anchor for a region defined by its waterway and mining history. Several small structures, simply labeled Cabin, are scattered along the riverbank and deeper into the tributary valleys, suggesting seasonal use by prospectors or trappers. In the mid-1950s, the extractive potential of the land is highlighted by a Placer Mine situated along Rosa Creek, while the presence of Bonanza Creek and Homestake Creek points to the area's gold-seeking heritage.
