1954 Map of Dillingham B-2

About this map

Ben Courtney Creek meanders through an intricate aquatic landscape in this mid-1950s survey by the Army Map Service. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of countless small lakes, ponds, and marshlands typical of the Bristol Bay region. The only named topographic prominence is Yellow Hill 2, which rises above the surrounding wet lowlands. This survey, compiled from aerial photography taken between 1953 and 1955, reveals a remote wilderness devoid of human settlements or improved infrastructure at the time of mapping. The absence of roads or trails emphasizes the isolation of this corner of Alaska, where the natural drainage patterns and the boundary between Range 43 West and Range 42 West provide the primary points of orientation for researchers and historians studying the region's environmental history.
