1954 Map of Bethel B-8

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The braided waters of the Eek River and the Eenayarak River dominate this subarctic landscape in the mid-1950s. This survey reveals a complex hydrological network of tundra ponds and interconnected waterways, including the prominent Eek Lake in the northeastern quadrant. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by a seasonal Winter Trail that cuts through the western terrain and a solitary Cabin located north of the river system. The map represents a specific moment in the mid-century administration of the Alaskan wilderness, utilizing topography derived from 1952 aerial photography and 1954 field annotations. The land lines shown are based on predetermined, unsurveyed locations from the Bureau of Land Management, highlighting the remote and largely undeveloped nature of the region during this era of territorial history.
