1953 Map of Mount Katmai B-5

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Katmai National Monument dominates this mid-century survey, showcasing a landscape defined by dramatic volcanic and glacial activity. The northern section is marked by the expansive waters of Naknek Lake (Iliuk Arm) and the winding course of Margot Creek. To the east, the towering heights of Mt Katolinat overlook the confluence of the Ukak River. The southern portion of the map reveals the stark topography of the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes, where Knife Creek and the Lethe River converge at Three Forks. This area, bordered by the Buttress Range, reflects the geologic aftermath of early 20th-century eruptions. The map also traces high-altitude passages like Yori Pass and the remote drainage of Windy Creek, providing a detailed look at this wilderness area as it was recorded in the early 1950s.
