About this map

The Yentna River and Kahiltna River converge in this mid-century survey of the Susitna basin, defining a landscape of complex waterways and seasonal wetlands. The settlement of McDougal (Aband) sits along the Yentna, serving as a primary human landmark in an area otherwise marked by isolated Cabins. The intricate drainage system is characterized by extensive sloughs and creek networks, including the prominent Twentymile Slough and the outlet of Alexander Lake. To the north, the Fish Lakes and Bulchitna Lake occupy the terrain between Lake Creek and the river bends. This map reflects the remote character of the Matanuska-Susitna region during the 1950s, documenting the specific locations of trapper or hunting cabins and the exact paths of salmon-bearing tributaries like Kutna Creek and Clear Creek before later 20th-century shifts in the river channels.
