1954 Map of Lake Clark A-3

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Kontrashibuna Lake and Upper Tazimina Lake dominate this glacial landscape in the southwestern Alaska interior, as documented through aerial photography and field annotations from the mid-1950s. The topography is defined by significant elevations like Copper Mountain and Tanalian Mountain, separated by high-altitude drainages such as Gladiator Basin. The drainage pattern is complex, with Kasna Creek feeding into the central lake and the Tazimina River flowing from the southern water bodies. At the time of this survey, the region remained largely undeveloped with no roads or trails recorded, emphasizing a period of wild terrain before more modern access. Notable landmarks for navigators and surveyors of this era include the Base Line and named watercourses like Currant Creek and Brooks Creek.
