1952 Map of Marshall D-6

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Kashunuk River meanders through a vast network of wetlands and tundra in this early 1950s survey of the Seward Meridian. The landscape is dominated by complex water systems, where the river loops back upon itself amidst countless unnamed ponds and sloughs. Near the southwestern corner, the settlement of Owl Village stands as a rare point of human habitation in this remote region. Compiled by the Army Map Service using photogrammetric methods from aerial photography taken in 1951 and 1952, the map documents a terrain that was largely unsurveyed and unmarked on the ground at the time. This record provides a clear look at the natural drainage patterns of the Alaskan wilderness before more modern environmental shifts, centered on the Kashunuk River corridor.
