1951 Map of Lake Clark

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

Lake Clark dominates this 1951 study of the interior Alaskan wilderness, where the jagged peaks of the Alaska Range and Chigmit Mountains meet a complex network of glacial rivers and alpine lakes. Settlement is sparse, anchored by the Old Village near Telaquana Lake and Nondalton to the southwest, connected by a long Native Trail and a Portage Trail that trace historical movement through the valleys. The landscape is defined by its extreme elevation changes, from the shores of Portage Bay to the towering Iliamna Volcano. Several cabins and a remote Landing Field near Tanalian Point indicate the early 1950s infrastructure used for access. Significant waterways like the Mulchatna River and Koksetna River drain the high country, while isolated features such as Kijik Mtn and the Bonanza Hills stand as prominent landmarks for aerial and ground navigation during this era of reconnaissance mapping.
