1954 Map of Taylor Mountains D-3

About this map

Stuyahok Creek meanders northward through this remote interior landscape, its winding course serving as the primary drainage through a valley flanked by rising slopes. Dominating the central-northern portion of the sheet is Fuller Mountain, a distinct peak that provides a singular vertical landmark in an otherwise undulating terrain. To the southwest, the Little Taylor Mountains begin to rise, defined by elevations that were photogrammetrically mapped in the mid-1950s using aerial photography. This 1954 survey captures a moment in the Seward Meridian region before significant modern development, where land lines represent unsurveyed and unmarked locations predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management. The map illustrates a natural wilderness defined entirely by its topography and water systems, with no roads or trails recorded during the time of field annotation.
