1952 Map of Kwiguk B-3

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Allen Creek and Avelaktunguk represent the primary named watercourses within this mid-century survey of the remote Alaskan landscape. The topography, mapped by the Army Map Service using photogrammetric methods from 1951 and 1952, reveals a complex network of wetlands and drainage patterns that characterize the region. The absence of roads or established settlements on the sheet underscores the seasonal and subsistence-based nature of movement across this terrain during the early 1950s. While human-made landmarks are few, the intricate contour lines and labeled streams like Avelaktunguk provide the essential geographic framework for understanding the natural environment before later revisions occurred in the mid-1970s.
