1954 Map of Goodnews D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Eek Mountains dominate the eastern landscape of this mid-century Alaskan survey, where high ridges rise sharply above the river valleys. The northern portion of the map is defined by the Eek River, which winds through the mountain base, while the southern reaches are shaped by the broad path of the Kanektok River. This watershed is fed by several primary tributaries, including Nakailingak Creek, which flows into the northern river system, and Klak Creek and Sam Creek to the south. Mapped by the Army Map Service using aerial photography, the sheet records a wilderness devoid of roads or trails, showing the natural state of the terrain as it existed during the 1950s. The dense contour lines illustrate the steep drainage patterns typical of this part of the Bethel region, where the rivers serve as the primary geographical markers in an otherwise uninhabited stretch of mountain and tundra.
