1954 Map of Tyonek C-3

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Little Mt Susitna and Beluga Mountain anchor this mid-century topographic survey of the Alaskan interior, showing a landscape defined by an intricate network of waterways and glacial lakes. Centered on the Matanuska-Susitna region, the map documents the area during a period of minimal terrestrial development, where travel relied heavily on water routes and small aircraft. Evidence of human activity is sparse, concentrated near Alexander Lake with its Landing Strip and nearby Cabins. The intricate drainage patterns of Alexander Creek, Sucker Creek, and Wolverine Creek reveal a complex wetland ecosystem, punctuated by prominent bodies of water like Wolf Lakes and Rabbit Lake. This era represents a time before significant infrastructure reached this portion of the borough, preserving the original hydrological and topographical relationships of the Susitna river basin.
