1954 Map of Baird Inlet A-4

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Dall Lake marks the northwestern corner of this 1954 landscape, where an intricate network of unnamed water bodies and marshland dominates the terrain. This survey reflects a period when the Bureau of Land Management used predetermined, unsurveyed locations to establish the Base Line across the central portion of the Baird Inlet region. The area is characterized by low relief and expansive wetlands, captured through photogrammetric methods from aerial photographs taken between 1952 and 1955. Because the map was not field checked, it provides a unique look at the interpretive mapping of the Alaskan wilderness before extensive ground surveys, emphasizing the natural hydrology and the early administrative efforts of the Seward Meridian.
