1952 Map of Hooper Bay A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Clarence Rhode National Wildlife Range dominates this coastal landscape along the Bering Sea, as documented in the early 1950s. The region is defined by a complex labyrinth of tidal waterways and silty flats, where the Putakoke River and its namesake Tutakoke River branch wind through a vast expanse of Sand and Mud. This map, published by the U.S. Geological Survey using Army Map Service data, illustrates a wilderness devoid of roads or permanent settlements, relying instead on several vertical control points like VABM Silver and VABM Sally for orientation. To the east, the drainage networks of the Aphrewn River and Afrothluk River create a rhythmic pattern of sloughs and streams, such as Pungatuk Slough, that shift with the tides of the Opagyarak River.
