1954 Map of Hagemeister Island D-4

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Osviak River meanders through a complex network of wetlands and tundra in this mid-century survey of the Alaska coastline. Reaching the southern shore at the settlement of Osviak, the river drains into the cold waters of the Hagemeister Strait. The topography is defined by significant coastal elevations, including Downdraft Mountain to the northeast and Virgo Mountain further south, providing a stark contrast to the surrounding marshy lowlands. At the shoreline, Estus Point serves as a distinct maritime landmark along the rugged coastal profile. Compiled from 1957 aerial photography and 1954 field annotations, the map reflects a period when the Bureau of Land Management was predetermining land lines across these unsurveyed and unmarked territories of the Seward Meridian.
