1954 Map of Goodnews A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Goodnews River defines the hydrologic character of this Alaskan landscape, where the Middle Fork and South Fork create a complex network of waterways across the tundra. Based on aerial photography from 1957 and field annotations from 1954, the map reflects a mid-century era of remote surveying managed by the Bureau of Land Management, which predetermined unsurveyed and unmarked land lines for the region. The terrain is characterized by dramatic elevation changes, notably at Nikolai Hill and along the course of the Osviak River in the south. Unlike more developed regions, this map reveals a wilderness without roads or trails, where the Tinyagak Creek and other smaller tributaries remain the primary geographical landmarks for navigation and land management.
