1952 Map of Kwiguk A-1

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Chuilnak River and Kuyukutuk River meander across this deltaic landscape, creating an intricate network of oxbow lakes, marshes, and waterways. This early 1950s survey captures the region's geography before significant modern changes, centered on the complex drainage patterns north of the Yukon River. The presence of Cabins and the Winter Trail in the southern portion of the map suggests seasonal navigation and subsistence patterns typical of the era. The vast wetland environment is defined by the Five Day Slough, illustrating the dynamic nature of water movement in this subarctic terrain. For researchers and historians, the map provides a clear record of established routes and temporary dwellings that supported travel and life along the river systems during this period.
