1954 Map of Taylor Mountains A-3

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Sleitat Mountain anchors this mid-century topographic survey of the Taylor Mountains region in southwestern Alaska. The terrain is defined by a dense network of subarctic waterways, where the southern flow of Harris Creek and the meandering path of Old Man Creek dominate the drainage patterns. To the northwest, Vukpalik Creek carves through the land, illustrating the transition from highland ridges to lower swampy basins. This 1954 data, compiled by the Defense Mapping Agency and the Geological Survey from aerial photography, captures a landscape devoid of permanent settlements or roads. The map highlights the intersection of the regional Base Line, providing a foundational view of the remote wilderness before modern development or environmental shifts altered the hydrology of these interior valleys.
