1954 Map of Lake Clark C-4

About this map

The Mulchatna River and the Chilikadrotna River dominate this interior Alaskan landscape, which was mapped from aerial photography in the late 1950s. The terrain transitions from the high peaks of the Bonanza Hills in the northwest down to a complex system of kettle lakes and wetlands in the central plateau. A significant archaeological and historical marker on this map is the long Native Trail that traverses the southern and eastern quadrants, providing a record of traditional overland travel routes through the river valleys. Water features such as Snipe Lake and the confluence of the Little Mulchatna River indicate a landscape defined by seasonal flow and remote accessibility. These unmarked locations, many predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management, reveal the state of the Alaskan wilderness before more modern infrastructure began to alter these historic corridors.
