1979 Map of Goodnews Bay D-1

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Wood-Tikchik State Park encompasses a significant portion of this wilderness landscape, defined by a massive interconnected system of lakes and glacial valleys. The water network is the defining structural element of the terrain, where Nuyakuk Lake and Lake Chauekuktuli are joined by the Portage Arm and the winding Izavieknik River. The map captures a moment in the late 1970s when this region remained largely devoid of road infrastructure, relying instead on the natural corridors provided by the water. Toward the south, Mount Waskey stands as a prominent high point, while the Red Hills rise to the north above Shadow Bay. This 1979 survey reflects the preservation of the landscape under state park designation, showing the pristine condition of the shoreline at Mirror Bay before modern recreational developments altered these remote waterways.
