1954 Map of Lake Clark A-4

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Port Alsworth serves as the primary human anchor on the southeastern shore of Lake Clark, positioned strategically near the mouth of the Tanalian River. This mid-century survey reflects a wilderness landscape defined by high alpine lakes and glacial drainages, including the dramatic Kontrashibuna Lake and the connected waters of Upper Tazimina Lake and Lower Tazimina Lake. The importance of bush aviation in this roadless region is highlighted by the Tanalian Point Landing Field, which provides vital access to the settlement on Tanalian Point. Steep elevation changes are dominated by the massive profile of Tanalian Mountain, while the jagged coastline is punctuated by features like Hardenburg Bay and Cape Shishkin. The hydrography is intricately detailed, from the broad Tazimina River to smaller drainages like Takoka Creek and Tommy Creek, illustrating the natural water systems of the Alaska Peninsula.
