1952 Map of Naknek B-5

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Cape Chichagof anchors this coastal survey of the Alaska Peninsula's western shoreline, where the waters of Kvichak Bay meet the northern reaches of Bristol Bay. The landscape is defined by vast Tidal Flats and an intricate network of coastal lakes and tundra ponds. Human presence in this environment is represented by isolated Cabin sites and the Winter Trail that weaves along the shoreline, providing essential overland transit when the ground is frozen. Near the center of the coast, the Middle Bluff Light serves as a critical navigation point for mariners traversing the bay. Farther inland, the meandering paths of Big Creek and Bishop Creek drain the water-logged lowlands, illustrating the complex hydrology of this subarctic coastal plain during the early 1950s.
