1951 Map of Mt Katmai

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Katmai National Monument dominates this mid-century survey, revealing a landscape defined by recent volcanic activity and remote seasonal outposts. The Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes stretches across the center, a stark result of the 1912 eruption near Novarupta and Katmai Volcano. The presence of Kulik Lodge, Grosvenor Camp, and Brooks Camp indicates the early development of recreational tourism and scientific research in this wilderness. Beyond the volcanic peaks like Trident Volcano and Mt Mageik, the map details a complex hydrography of glacial lakes including Nonvianuk Lake and Naknek Lake North Arm. Evidence of the dynamic terrain is captured in the massive Mageik Landslide and the numerous waterfalls like Brooks Falls and Wolverine Falls that interrupt the flow of the Savonoski River.
