1970 Map of Wiseman A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The confluence of the Koyukuk River North Fork and its surrounding wetlands dominates this 1970 interior Alaska landscape. The topography transitions from the low-lying basins of Florence Creek Lake to the rising elevations of the Jack White Range in the south. This survey reveals a sparse network of human presence, primarily indicated by a Winter Trail cutting across the eastern sector and isolated structures like a Cabin near the river bend. The intricate drainage patterns of Alder Creek, Winnie Creek, and Mailbox Creek highlight the seasonal hydrology of the Yukon-Koyukuk region. A notable geological feature, a Pingo, is identified in the southeast, indicating periglacial activity characteristic of this subarctic environment. The lack of established roads and the reliance on seasonal trails underscore the isolation and specialized transportation requirements of the Brooks Range foothills during this era.
