1954 Map of Goodnews A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Goodnews River watershed dominates this mid-century topographic survey, showing a landscape defined by its intricate drainage systems in the Bethel region. The confluence of the Middle Fork and South Fork reveals the complex hydrologic pattern of this Alaskan wilderness during the 1950s. Farther south, the Osviak River and Tiyagak Creek carve through terrain that remained largely unsurveyed in terms of traditional land lines, as noted by the Bureau of Land Management. This map represents a period of transitional cartography where photogrammetric methods from 1957 aerial photography were integrated with 1954 field annotations, providing a technical look at a roadless coastal interior before modern development or intensive resource mapping altered the primitive character of the river valleys.
