The map collection is a valued source of information not only for planning trips and climbs, but for studying problems in other areas.

BLM L Nd Use Plan for Southcentr I Lask a Summary
BLM L nd Use Plan for Southcentr I lask A Summary HT 393 .A4 U54 1980 I Cover: Peaks of the Alaska Range loom behind forested hills near the Denali Highway in Southcentral A Iaska. Photo by Page Spencer. September 22, 1980 We are pleased to share with you the results of our Southcentral land use plan. In this booklet we show maps of the areas likely to be administered by B LM, give a brief discussion of the resources of those areas and their present uses, and summarize the most important decisions made for each resource activity. Since this plan is intended to be implemented over a number of years, actions taken to carry out the decisions will necessarily hinge on funding. Land status in Alaska has been changing quickly and often dramatically in recent years as Congress, the President, the courts, the State of Alaska and Native Corporations all interact to vie for land ownership. The State or Native corporations may select. areas we show as being administered by BLM. For this reason, the boundaries we show here may change- may even have changed while this booklet was in press. We began working on the Southcentral plan in late 1977. The first thing we did was to contact other government agencies, special interest groups, and individuals likely to be interested. Detailed resource information was gathered by specialists who work for B LM and from other outside sources wherever available. By December of 1978, we had completed the analysis of resources and the ways those resources are now being used. -

Field Surveying and Topographic Mapping in Alaska: 1947-83
FIELD SURVEYING AND TOPOGRAPHIC MAPPING IN ALASKA: 1947-83 By Robert C. Foley U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY CIRCULAR 991 A chronological review of surveying activities in Alaska from 1947 to 1983, including a brief description of camp life and some of the hardships and unusual experiences encountered DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR DONALD PAUL HODEL, Secretary U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Dallas L. Peck, Director Free on application to the Books and Open-File Reports Section, U.S. Geological Survey, Federal Center, Box 25425, Denver, CO 80225 Foreword Field surveying and mapping in Alaska over the years have provided a unique opportunity for many not-so-ordinary experiences worthy of being recorded before they are lost forever. The author, Robert C. Foley, has pro- vided a historical recounting of the Geological Survey's Alaska field map- ping activities and related experiences during the period 1947-83. Robert retired from the Rocky Mountain Mapping Center in 1980 after 36 years of Federal service, including 16 field seasons spent in Alaska. He was hired as a reemployed annuitant until 1983. Robert is unquestionably this map- ping center's foremost Alaska mapping authority and was awarded the De- partment of the Interior's Superior Service Award in 1983 in recognition of his contributions, Although some editorial changes have been made to improve the organi- zation and flow of this publication, we have purposely avoided major changes in wording to preserve the author's style in recounting these events.
