1951 Map of Lake Clark

About this map

Lake Clark dominates this mid-century reconnaissance of the Alaska interior, serving as the central drainage for an intricate network of rivers including the Tlikakila River and Chulitna River. The map illustrates a landscape defined by its waterways and elevation, with the massive Iliamna Volcano rising in the southeast and the Bonanza Hills to the north. Settlement is sparse, represented by small outposts and indigenous sites such as Old Village near Lake Telaquana and the settlement of Nondalton situated between Sixmile Lake and the Chulitna River.
