1951 Map of Karluk C-4 and C-5

About this map

The Becharof National Wildlife Refuge and the surrounding wilderness dominate this 1951 coastal survey, capturing a wild stretch of the Alaska Peninsula before the era of modern development. The landscape is defined by the massive reach of Shelikof Strait, which borders the intricate coastline of Puale Bay. This coastal environment is marked by prominent landmarks such as Cape Aklek and Cape Kekurnoi, serving as critical navigational points for the region’s maritime traffic. Inland, the map documents small drainages like Kati Creek and Teresa Creek, alongside a few isolated structures simply labeled Cabin. These scattered improvements and a single Trail indicate the minimal human footprint in what remains one of the most secluded parts of the maritime refuge system.
