1954 Map of Goodnews A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Goodnews River defines the drainage of this southwestern Alaska landscape, showing the complex aquatic network before significant modern development. The survey illustrates the confluence where the Middle Fork and South Fork join the main channel, creating a broad valley of braided streams and wetlands. To the south, the Osviak River and Tiyagak Creek carve through higher elevations, including the prominent peak of Nisua 2078. These topographical details were captured via photogrammetric methods from 1957 aerial photography and 1954 field annotations, documenting the terrain of the Seward Meridian during a period when land lines were predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management but largely remained unsurveyed on the ground. The map serves as a vital record of the natural hydrology and land forms in this remote region of the Bethel area.
