1954 Map of Tyonek D-3

About this map

The Yentna River and Kahiltna River dominate this mid-century landscape in the Susitna River basin, where river travel and isolation defined the few human outposts. The settlement at McDougal (Aband) reflects the changing nature of northern outposts during this era, while scattered Cabins along the water suggest the seasonal rhythms of trapping, fishing, or surveying. Extensive wetlands and intricate waterways like Twentymile Slough and Deep Creek crisscross the terrain, showing a region largely untouched by formal road networks. Large freshwater bodies, including Alexander Lake and Bulchitna Lake, serve as significant landmarks in this unsurveyed territory. The map provides a detailed view of these remote drainage systems, including Kutna Creek and Bottle Creek, before modern infrastructure reached further into the Alaskan interior.
