1952 Map of Karluk

The presence of the Fish and Wildlife Service Upper Station near Stuntz Bluffs underscores the era's focus on conservation and maritime resource management. Navigation along this shoreline was guided by landmarks like the Light at Cape Uyak and distinctive geological features such as Tombstone Rks and Mushroom Reef. The map reveals a network of waterways including the Kejulik River and Sturgeon River, which served as vital corridors through the interior before the widespread expansion of terrestrial infrastructure.
