1954 Map of Marshall B-3

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Izaviknek River winds through the northern reaches of this tundra landscape, while the serpentine course of Kuka Creek dominates the central and southern sections. This 1950s survey, published in 1972, reveals a complex network of thousands of unnamed thaw lakes and wetlands characteristic of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region. The lack of roads, trails, or permanent settlements emphasizes the seasonal and water-dependent nature of travel and subsistence in this part of Alaska during the mid-20th century. Mapped using photogrammetric methods from aerial photographs taken in 1951 and 1952, the topography is marked by subtle elevation changes and intricate drainage patterns that defined the environment before more modern developments reached the interior.
