1963 Map of Bristol Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Bristol Bay and its coastal drainages dominate this 1960s study of the Alaska Peninsula shoreline. The map documents a landscape defined by expansive tidal systems and conservation boundaries, including the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge and the Anjakchak National Monument. Coastal landmarks such as Hook Lagoon and the extensive Tidal Flat near the mouth of the Cinder River highlight the dynamic interface between sea and land. Inland, a network of watercourses including Reindeer Creek and Mud Creek snake through the terrain. Small, isolated outposts and camps—recorded with names like Quirt, Teck, Yucca, Alfred, and Cabin—provide rare evidence of human presence in this region. This survey captures the remote character of the peninsula before the formal establishment of modern administrative boundaries was fully realized on older cartographic series.
