1951 Map of Mount Katmai B-5

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Katmai National Monument dominates this mid-century landscape, capturing a region shaped by intense volcanic activity and the complex hydrology of the Alaska Peninsula. The centerpiece is the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes, where the confluence of Knife Creek, Windy Creek, and the River Lethe form the headwaters of the Ukak River. These glacial and volcanic streams cut through ash-filled basins beneath the steep slopes of the Buttress Range and the prominent peak of Mt Katolinat.
