1954 Map of Baird Inlet A-3

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Ishkowik River meanders across this low-lying coastal landscape of western Alaska, where the delta environment is defined by an intricate network of unnamed ponds and marshes. The hydrological complexity is striking, featuring the braided path of the Kongnignanohk River and the significant basin of Kolekfikpuk Lake in the southwest corner. The absence of roads or established trails on this 1950s survey highlights the remote character of the Bethel region during this era. A single Shelter located along the eastern bends of the Ishkowik River serves as the only named man-made point of interest, likely indicating a vital waypoint for subsistence hunters or travelers navigating the waterways before the widespread use of modern navigation. Broad areas of Sand Mud are identified along the river banks, reflecting the seasonal shifts and sedimentary nature of the region's massive drainage systems.
