1956 Map of Tanana D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Hokotada Creek and Nethkati Creek carve through the interior wilderness of the Yukon-Koyukuk region, defining a landscape dominated by unnamed peaks and ridges. This mid-century survey, based on aerial photography from the early 1950s, documents a remote section of the Alaskan interior before modern development. The drainage patterns of the North Fork and Dagislakhna Creek suggest a complex hydrology where steep Mountains meet low-lying swampy areas in the north. The map reflects a period of extensive federal surveying where land lines were predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management but remained largely unsurveyed on the ground, emphasizing the isolated nature of this terrain during the territorial-to-statehood transition.
