1954 Map of Karluk A-2

About this map

Kodiak Island's southwestern coast is defined by the winding course of the Ayakulik River and the protected waters of Olga Bay in this mid-century topographical record. This remote landscape within the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge shows a sparse network of human activity, concentrated primarily around the coast and inland waterways. Small outposts such as Ayakulik and the Fish and Wildlife Service Upper Station on Olga Cr anchor the area, while numerous isolated labels like Cabin, Cabins, and Mud suggest seasonal use by hunters, researchers, or trappers. The terrain varies from the coastal elevations of Oval Mtn and Mt Myrtle to the low-lying stretches of Tundra and Sandy, illustrating the transition from the Pacific Ocean surf to the interior's complex hydrology.
