1963 Map of Chignik B-4

About this map

Black Lake dominates the upper corner of this coastal Alaska landscape, serving as a primary water source for the Chignik River. The drainage network includes Blueberry Creek and Fireweed Creek, which snake through marshy lowlands before the terrain rises sharply toward the southern peaks. This 1963 survey illustrates a transition from the extensive wetlands near the lake to the glaciated high country, where Cinder Glacier and Knife Peak define the mountainous skyline.
