1954 Map of Goodnews Bay D-8

About this map

Quinhagak sits at the confluence of the Kanektok River and the eastern shore of Kuskokwim Bay, serving as a primary settlement in this coastal delta landscape. This mid-century survey by the Defense Mapping Agency captures the region just as it was being integrated into federal conservation efforts, with the Togiak National Wildlife Refuge boundary established across the southern reach. The hydrology is dominated by intricate drainage systems, including the North Branch and South Branch Warehouse Creek, which snake through a low-lying terrain of lakes and tidal flats. Evidence of seasonal travel and remote access is documented through the Winter Trail and a designated Landing Strip near the coast. Smaller waterways like Weelung Creek and Ithagsutlek Lake reflect the complex aquatic network essential to the area's subsistence and transport patterns before modern infrastructure arrived.
