1954 Map of Dillingham B-6

About this map

The Muklung Hills dominate the southwestern quadrant of this Alaskan landscape, rising above a complex network of waterways and marshlands. Mapped in the mid-1950s, the terrain is defined by the winding course of the Kokwok River in the north and the Muklung River to the south. This area is characterized by an intricate drainage pattern where Kenakuchuk Creek and Koklung Creek feed into larger river systems through a series of unnamed lakes and wetlands. A single Cabin near the northern boundary represents the only named structure, reflecting the isolated nature of the region during this period. The landscape showcases the characteristic Alaskan tundra and muskeg transition, where topography is dictated by the subtle elevation changes between the many tributaries like Nameless Creek and the high ground of the interior hills.
