1952 Map of Marshall C-8

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Kashunuk River dominates this portion of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, where a maze of distributaries and wetlands create an intricate hydrologic pattern. This 1952 study, based on aerial photography from the Army Map Service, captures the braided character of the delta before significant modern environmental changes. Large water bodies like Nuigalak Lake and Nanvaranak Choa anchor the eastern landscape, while the Nushkolik Mtn provides a rare point of elevation in the southwestern corner. The intricate waterway system, including the Kokechik River, Piyukenuk River, and the curiously named Wrong Creek, illustrates the complex drainage of this coastal region. This map serves as a primary record of the seasonal water channels and landscape features of the Alaska interior during the mid-century period.
