1958 Map of Tyonek B-2

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The braided channels of the Susitna River dominate this 1950s landscape as it empties into Cook Inlet. The small settlement of Alexander is positioned at the confluence of Alexander Creek and the main river, marking a critical point of habitation in a terrain defined by shifting mudflats and sloughs. To the northwest, the elevation rises sharply toward the massif of Mt Susitna and South Peak, providing a dramatic backdrop to the low-lying Susitna Flats. Numerous isolated cabins and markers like VABM 479 Alex suggest a seasonal or survey presence in this water-rich environment. The intricate drainage patterns around Flat Horn Lake and Figure Eight Lake illustrate a dynamic hydrologic system where land and water are constantly renegotiated through features like Big Island and the broad Mud deposits of the delta.
