1954 Map of Baird Inlet A-2

About this map

Kuskokwim Bay and the intricate delta lands of southwest Alaska dominate this mid-century survey, revealing a landscape defined by shifting water and seasonal movement. The transition from the Kuskokwim River to the tidal flats is marked by extensive areas of mud and sand near West Point. This document is particularly valuable for documenting indigenous and seasonal land use, noting locations such as Popokamiut and several sites including Kuskovak (Site) and Papka (Site). The interior is a complex network of wetlands drained by the Tagayarak River and the Ishkowik River. A Winter Trail cuts across the northern landscape, illustrating the critical transportation corridors that emerged when the tundra froze. Smaller named localities like Snooks and Bivouac provide evidence of specific camps or points of interest within this labyrinth of lakes and sloughs.
