1954 Map of Dillingham C-6

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Kemuk Mountain rises prominently above a landscape defined by an intricate network of water and wetlands in this mid-century survey of southwestern Alaska. The terrain transition is sharp, as the elevated contours of the mountain stand in contrast to the low-lying basins of the Kokwok River and its tributaries. This territory was mapped by the Army Map Service using aerial photography from 1953, capturing the drainage patterns of Kenakuchuk Creek and Naputoli Creek as they meander through the tundra. The lack of roads or established settlements on the sheet reflects the wilderness character of the region during this era, where land lines represent unsurveyed locations predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management. Researchers will find a pristine representation of the hydrological systems that supported the traditional seasonal movement and resource gathering in the Dillingham area.
