1970 Map of Wiseman A-6

About this map

The Malamute Fork Alatna River winds through this northern interior landscape, defining a complex system of wetlands and shifting watercourses. Mapped in the early 1970s, the terrain is dominated by significant elevations such as Deadman Mountain and the Alatna Hills to the south. Numerous drainage systems including Mettenpherg Creek, Roosevelt Creek, and Jones Creek flow from the surrounding highlands toward the main river valley. This survey, based on 1970 aerial photography, illustrates a wilderness area devoid of established roads or permanent settlements at the time of annotation. The map detail reflects the intricate hydrology of the region, where seasonal flooding and low-relief swamps surrounding Bedrock Creek and Cummings Creek created a challenging environment for early exploration and land management by the Bureau of Land Management.
