1979 Map of Goodnews Bay B-1

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Wood-Tikchik State Park dominates the northern reaches of this landscape, where the headwaters of the Weary River and numerous glacial tributaries carve through the terrain. The hydrological network is the defining characteristic of the region, anchored by the expansive waters of Nunavaugaluk Lake in the southeast and a portion of Lake Aleknagik to the northeast. Mapping from the 1970s reveals a wilderness largely devoid of roads or permanent settlements, emphasizing the natural drainages of Sunshine Valley and naming smaller features like Gorge Creek, Lillie Creek, and Youth Creek. This survey captures the area in its raw state shortly after the park's establishment, providing a baseline for the environmental history of the Dillingham region before modern recreational development intensified.
