1954 Map of Kuskokwim Bay D-4

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The coastal village of Kwigillingok sits at the edge of the Bering Sea on this mid-century survey, surrounded by the intricate water network of the Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge. The map details a landscape where land and water blur, featuring a vast expanse of mud flats along Kuskokwim Bay and a complex system of ponds and lakes, including Kolekfikpuk Lake and Bow Lake. Remote outposts and seasonal camps are indicated by labels like Anogok, Teel, and Snare, while a local Cabin and a Cem reflect the human presence in this challenging environment. Transport in this roadless region is entirely dependent on the water and air, evidenced by the Kwigillingok River, a designated Seaplane Anchorage, and a small Landing Strip near the settlement. The topographic data, derived from 1950s aerial photography, highlights the dynamic nature of the delta's shoreline and its countless unnamed tidal inlets.
