1953 Map of Baird Inlet B-5

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Dall Lake dominates this 1953 landscape, a complex aquatic system of interconnected basins and narrow channels characteristic of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. The map documents a period of significant conservation management within the Clarence Rhode National Wildlife Range Area No 2, as designated in the mid-20th century. The intricate web of tundra ponds and larger water bodies illustrates the saturated, low-lying terrain that serves as a critical habitat for migratory birds. This survey, compiled from 1952 aerial photography and 1953 field annotation, provides an exact record of the shoreline configurations and water-to-land ratios before later environmental shifts or management changes within the wildlife refuge boundaries.
