1954 Map of Taylor Mountains C-6

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Kogrukluk River meanders across the northwestern portion of this Alaskan interior landscape, defining the drainage patterns for a region devoid of roads or established trails at the time of its 1953 aerial survey. Steep terrain dominates the south and east, with heights identified as Shotgun and Kukluk rising above the headwaters of Shotgun Creek. The map reflects an era of preliminary exploration where land lines were predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management but remained unsurveyed on the ground. Named landmarks like Burnt and Bears serve as vital navigational markers in an otherwise unmarked wilderness. This survey is a detailed record of the Seward Meridian territory before modern infrastructure, documenting a landscape shaped entirely by its hydrology and high-relief topography.
