1952 Map of Kwiguk B-4

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Yukon River dominates this mid-century landscape in the Kusilvak region of Alaska, carving a wide path through a complex network of wetlands and waterways. The map illustrates a transitional environment where the massive river system splits into the Tunurorpak Channel and Kukutak Slough, illustrating the dynamic hydrology of the delta. Human presence is sparse but precisely marked by local landmarks like Patsys Cabin and a set of Cables crossing a secondary channel, reflecting the navigational and survival needs of the era. The terrain east of the river transitions into elevated hills where the Kun River and Archuelinguk River navigate more defined valleys. Seasonal movement is preserved through the marking of a Winter Trail (Approximate), which provided a vital overland link when the many lakes and sloughs were frozen over.
