1951 Map of Mount Katmai C-6

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

North Arm Naknek Lake and the surrounding wilderness of the Katmai National Monument are depicted here as they were documented in the early 1950s. The landscape is defined by its deep glacial waters and prominent peaks, notably Dumpling Mountain, which overlooks the convergence of Brooks Lake and the larger Naknek system. The presence of the Brooks Camp Ranger Station Seaplane Base underscores the region's reliance on aviation for access and administration in the post-war era. Along the Brooks R, the map identifies the location of Brooks Falls, a site historically significant for its wildlife and fisheries. Small clusters of Cabins and unidentified Ruins suggest a landscape where temporary habitation and administrative outposts were the only footprints in an otherwise wild terrain. The survey provides a clear view of the complex shoreline including the Iliuk Arm.
