1950 Map of Teller D-2

About this map

Winter Trail (Approximate Alignment) cuts a north-south path through this remote Seward Peninsula landscape, providing a vital connection across the drainages of the Arctic River and Sanaguich River. Surveyed by the Army Map Service and the Geological Survey in the mid-twentieth century, the terrain is defined by its network of gold-rush era named waterways. The names here, including Nugget Creek, Bonanza Creek, and Eldorado Creek, reflect the persistent prospecting history that shaped the nomenclature of the Alaska Territory. The map documents the intricate hydrology where upland creeks like Fox Creek and Bluff Creek feed into the larger river systems, illustrating a landscape where travel was historically dictated by seasonal freeze and thaw cycles rather than established roads.
