1954 Map of Taylor Mountains C-5

About this map

Nushagak Hills define the terrain of this interior Alaskan landscape as it was documented in the mid-1950s. The topographic survey focuses on the winding path of Shotgun Creek, which carves through a complex network of high ridges and narrow valleys. This area is notably characterized by its lack of infrastructure, with the map notes explicitly stating that no roads or trails existed in this portion of the Taylor Mountains at the time of the survey. The drainage patterns and 25-foot contour intervals reveal a wilderness defined by water and elevation, offering a precise look at the geography before modern changes. It serves as a foundational record of the regional hydrology and landform elevations as captured by photogrammetric methods.
