1956 Map of Wiseman

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Wiseman and Coldfoot serve as the primary human outposts in this expansive landscape dominated by the Endicott Mountains. This survey, compiled from 1955 aerial photography, reveals a wilderness defined by its massive river systems, including the Koyukuk River, Alatna River, and John River. The presence of a Placer Mine near Wiseman and the remote Tramway Bar settlement along the Middle Fork suggests the persistent pull of mineral exploration in the Brooks Range.
