1954 Map of Dillingham D-6

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Nuyakuk River meanders across this mid-century topographic survey, serving as the central hydrological artery of a landscape defined by water and wetlands. In the mid-1950s, human activity in this corner of the Alaska bush was sparse and utilitarian, represented by a single Cabin and Gaging Sta near the eastern shore of Tikchik Lake. The inclusion of Ruins along the riverbank indicates a former site of habitation or industry that had already begun to fade by the time the Army Map Service conducted its photogrammetric mapping from aerial photographs in 1953 and 1955. The terrain is characterized by intricate drainage patterns and countless small unnamed ponds, illustrating the complex geography of the Dillingham region before significant modern development.
