1956 Map of Tanana B-6

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Tozitna River winds through the eastern edge of this mid-century Alaskan interior landscape, a region defined by its drainage basins and isolated mining activity. Prominent high points like Moran Dome, Grant Dome, and Lynx Dome overlook a network of waterways including Tozimoran Creek and Slate Creek. Infrastructure is sparse and utilitarian, represented by a single Airstrip and a Tractor Trail that provides the primary overland access through the valley of Golden Creek. A solitary Cabin and a Placer Mine near Gold Hill point to the remote subsistence and extraction economy of the area during the 1950s. The map illustrates a transitional period of survey, where traditional mining sites like those on American Creek were being documented alongside early aviation infrastructure.
