1951 Map of Mt. Katmai

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The volcanic core of the Walatka Mountains dominates this mid-century survey, centered on the dramatic caldera of Mt Katmai and the surrounding valley. In the decades following the 1912 eruption, this landscape was defined by its geological activity and emerging wilderness tourism. Evidence of this era is seen at Brooks Camp and the Kulik Lodge, where a Seaplane Base and remote landing areas provided rare access points. The complex drainage systems of the Savonoski River and Katmai River link the massive inland bodies of Naknek Lake and Lake Grosvenor to the Pacific coast. Along the Shelikof Strait, the map details a jagged coastline of deep inlets like Amalik Bay and the storied Geographic Harbor, while the interior remains a labyrinth of peaks including Trident Volcano and the Devils Desk.
