1951 Map of Naknek A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Becharof Lake dominates the southern landscape of this 1951 photogrammetric survey, its expansive shoreline meeting a complex network of marshes and small ponds. Further north, the King Salmon River meanders across the tundra, defining the drainage patterns of this remote Alaska Peninsula region. The terrain is marked by significant elevations such as Whale Mountain and various survey points including VABM Blue 335 and VABM Jeanne 184. Human presence is minimal, noted only by a lone Cabin near the lake's edge. The map captures the raw geographical character of the area prior to significant 20th-century development, focusing on the intricate waterways of Shosky Creek and the vast, unpeopled stretches between the river systems and the mountain ridges.
