1954 Map of Tyonek D-2

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Kahiltna River and the Yentna River dominate this 1950s landscape, their winding courses carving through a complex network of wetlands and low-relief terrain. The map reflects a period before extensive modern development, based on 1952 aerial photography and 1954 field data. Sparse human presence is indicated by an isolated Cabin located near the southern shore of Lockwood Lake, highlighting the remote nature of the region at the time. The drainage patterns of Kroto Creek and Moose Creek further define the intricate hydrology of the area. Because the land lines shown were predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management but remained largely unsurveyed and unmarked on the ground, the map serves as an important record of early territorial planning and the raw physical geography of the Matanuska-Susitna region during the mid-century era.
