1954 Map of Marshall A-2

About this map

Kayigyalik Lake dominates the southern landscape of this remote subarctic region, representing the intricate water systems characteristic of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. Mapped using photogrammetric methods from 1950s aerial photography, the terrain is defined by a dense labyrinth of thousands of small unnamed ponds, sloughs, and marshlands. To the west, the expanse of Takstesluk Lake marks another significant water body in this largely roadless area. This 1954 field-annotated study by the Army Map Service provides a detailed view of the natural hydrology before modern changes, documenting a landscape where water and land are inextricably linked. The map also features land lines predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management, indicating early administrative efforts in this unsurveyed territory.
