1953 Map of Baird Inlet C-5

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Baird Inlet dominates this coastal landscape, a vast water body in western Alaska mapped during the early 1950s. The shoreline and surrounding wetlands are defined by the Clarence Rhode National Wildlife Range, reflecting a period of significant federal conservation efforts in the territory before statehood. The terrain is characterized by a complex network of small ponds and tundra waterways, emphasizing the trackless, roadless nature of the region during this survey. Mapped using photogrammetric methods from 1952 aerial photography, the sheet preserves the natural hydrology of the Seward Meridian before later administrative changes. This topographical study provides a precise record of the inlet’s complex northern and southern shores, where the land meets the water in a intricate maze of unnamed coastal features.
