1948 Map of Valdez D-5

About this map

Hudson Lake sits as a central water feature in this Alaskan interior landscape, which was mapped via aerial photography shortly after the war. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, with Mt Carter, Sunny Peak, and Dowling Peak rising above the surrounding valleys. The surveying by the Bureau of Land Management established the Copper River Base Line here, an essential reference for early land divisions in a region that remained largely unsurveyed on the ground at the time of the 1948 photography.
