1952 Map of Unalakleet D-2

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Old Woman River meanders through this interior Alaskan landscape, a region defined by its seasonal movement and administrative boundaries in the early 1950s. The map illustrates the convergence of the Unalakleet River and its tributaries, showing the topographic reality of the terrain before modern infrastructure reached this part of the Nome region. A significant historical detail is the Winter Trail, which underscores the reliance on traditional routes through the river valleys during the colder months. This survey also records the boundary line between the Second Judicial Division and the Fourth Judicial Division, reflecting the mid-century legal geography of the territory. The map's detailed contouring and drainage patterns reveal how the river systems served as the primary corridors for travel and mapping efforts conducted by the Corps of Engineers.
