1953 Map of Baird Inlet B-5

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Dall Lake dominates this aquatic landscape in western Alaska, where the vast wetlands of the Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge create a complex network of marshes, ponds, and small lakes. Based on surveys from 1952 and 1980 with minor revisions in 1987, the map illustrates the shifting hydrologic patterns of the region. The lack of named roads or established settlements emphasizes the character of the terrain, which consists entirely of unsurveyed and unmarked lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management. This specific sheet provides an essential record of the shoreline and swamp extents before more recent climate-driven changes altered the permafrost and drainage basins of the delta. It is a focused study of subarctic hydrology where water and land are in constant flux.
