1954 Map of Iliamna C-8

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Iliamna Lake dominates the southeastern portion of this landscape, its expansive shoreline meeting a complex network of wetlands and tundra. The terrain is defined by a dense concentration of unnamed glacial ponds and small lakes that blanket the lowlands, illustrating the post-glacial hydrology of this region in the mid-1950s. The Kakhonak River provides the primary drainage route, winding through the center of the sheet as it flows toward the great lake. Based on aerial photography from 1953 and 1955, this topographic study captures the area in a purely natural state, with no roads, trails, or permanent settlements indicated. It serves as a precise record of the shoreline and water levels before more modern developments or environmental shifts influenced this part of the Alaska Peninsula.
