1954 Map of Baird Inlet D-1

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Pikmiktalik River and the sprawling expanse of Nunavakanukakslak Lake dominate this 1950s interior landscape of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. This region, mapped by the Army Map Service using aerial photography, reveals a complex hydrologic network where land and water blur into a labyrinth of tundra ponds and meandering channels. Small settlements and points of interest such as Paingakmeut, Adams, and the aptly named Trouble are documented along these waterways, highlighting the vital role of rivers like the Johnson River and Kukthluk River for transportation and survival. The absence of roads or established trails on the sheet underscores the remote nature of this delta environment during the mid-twentieth century, as mapped by the Geological Survey.
