1952 Map of Hooper Bay C-4

About this map

Panowat Spit and its narrow barrier sands define the western edge of Kokechik Bay in this mid-century coastal survey. The terrain is dominated by shifting maritime features, including the dunes at Dall Pt and the seasonal dynamics of Manayagayik Slough. A notable maritime hazard is marked by a Wreck located off the northern portion of the spit, just south of Aniktun Island. This map captures the remote Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region before modern infrastructure, where the Bering Sea continuously reshapes the coastline. The presence of triangulation stations like VABM Kokechik North Base indicates the early scientific efforts to precisely map this transitional aquatic environment. The southern reach is characterized by Nuok Spit, illustrating the complex network of sand and mud flats that served as the primary geography for local transit and subsistence.
