1952 Map of Kwiguk B-6

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Eleutak stands as the primary named settlement on this 1952 topographic survey, situated within a complex delta environment where the Black River and Ponglevik River meet the Bering Sea's tidal influences. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including the broad Kwemeluk Pass and the winding Anakshek Pass. A Winter Trail cuts across the northern reaches, indicating the seasonal transport patterns necessary for navigating this watery terrain. Surveyed just after the war by the Army Map Service, the map records numerous sloughs such as Nagakchowik Slough and Lookout Slough, which served as vital corridors for local movement through the vast wetlands. Three triangulation stations, including VABM Kwemeluk, provide fixed navigation points in an otherwise shifting landscape of marshes and river channels.
