1954 Map of Lake Clark A-6

About this map

Long Lake dominates the center of this remote Alaskan landscape, where the Seward Base Line divides the survey into northern and southern ranges. The drainage pattern is defined by the Chulitna River and the Koksetna River, which wind through the lowlands before meeting the higher elevations of Groundhog Mountain and Hoknede Mountain in the south. Unlike more settled regions, this area shows no roads or trails, illustrating the untouched character of the Lake Clark region in the mid-1950s. The map serves as a primary record of the hydrography of the territory, including smaller water bodies like Joe Nort Lake and tributaries such as Groundhog Creek and Rock Creek.
