1954 Map of Goodnews D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Kanektok River carves a dominant path through this southwestern Alaskan landscape, where the Eek Mountains define the northern and eastern horizons. Photogrammetric methods using aerial photography from 1957 captured this region at a time when its terrain remained largely unsurveyed on the ground, as noted by the Bureau of Land Management. The hydrological network is the primary feature of this quadrangle, with the Eek River and several significant tributaries, including Klak Creek, Nakailingak Creek, and Sam Creek, branching out through the valleys. The absence of roads or permanent structures in this 1954 field-annotated survey highlights the area's isolation and its reliance on natural waterways for navigation and orientation.
