1952 Map of Holy Cross A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Yukon Delta landscape is defined by a dense network of marshes and watercourses, mapped here in the early 1950s using aerial photography. The Nageethluk River winds through the northern portion of the quadrangle, while the southern terrain is crossed by the Kuyukutuk River. This region is almost entirely comprised of low-relief wetlands, punctuated by countless unnamed lakes and ponds characteristic of the Alaskan coastal plain. The map reflects a 1982 revision that overlayed the Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge and its associated Refuge Boundary following the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act. This survey provides a baseline of the hydrologic patterns before modern climatic shifts, showing the intricate natural drainage and unmarked land lines predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management.
