1951 Map of Dillingham A-1

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Kvichak River and Alagnak River dominate this 1950s landscape, flowing through a complex network of wetlands and tundra in the Alaska-Third Judicial Division. This map, based on 1951 aerial photography, illustrates a largely unsettled wilderness where water governs the geography. A single Cabin near the northern river bend represents the only named structure in the quadrangle, serving as a vital landmark for those navigating these remote waterways. The terrain is marked by survey control points such as Vabm Yenuk 408 and Vabm Statem 361, which provided the essential data for the U.S. Geological Survey to map this intricate drainage system. The braid of the rivers and the density of unnamed ponds reflect the shifting, hydraulic nature of the Bristol Bay region during the mid-century.
