1954 Map of Baird Inlet A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Kinia River and Kiniak River meander through an intricate network of wetlands and ponds on this 1954 topographic survey. Located within the expansive Clarence Rhode National Wildlife Range Area No 2, the landscape is defined by the shifting boundaries of water and land. The map identifies Kinak (Site) near the southern reaches of the river, suggesting a former habitation point or seasonal camp in a region largely dominated by tidal flats and complex hydraulics. Rising above the low-lying tundra, Cheeching Mountain provides the most prominent landmark in a territory where the land gradually transitions into the saltwater of Kuskokwim Bay. The mapping provides a technical view of the region's hydrology and land elevation just before the mid-century period of Alaskan statehood.
