1963 Map of Chignik B-7

About this map

Cape Seniavin and Cape Kutuzof define this stretch of the Alaska Peninsula coastline, where the land meets the expansive waters of Bristol Bay. This 1963 field-annotated survey reveals a low-lying landscape dominated by coastal wetlands and intricate drainage patterns. The southeastern portion of the map is characterized by a significant area of Sand Dunes situated inland from the shoreline. The Muddy River winds through the lower terrain, illustrating the hydrologic connection between the peninsula's interior and the sea. This sheet serves as a record of a largely undeveloped wilderness during the mid-20th century, where land lines represent unsurveyed locations predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management under the Seward Meridian.
