1951 Map of Naknek C-1

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Naknek Lake dominates this mid-century topographic record, particularly its sweeping North Arm which reaches deep into the Alaskan wilderness. The map captures a significant portion of the Naknek National Monument, documenting the terrain before major shifts in park designation and administration. The landscape is defined by the intersection of the Bristol Bay Borough line and the National Monument Boundary (Approximate), marking a transition from municipal administration to protected federal lands. Elevations and landforms throughout the Katmai area were interpreted from 1951 aerial photography, showing a complex network of wetlands and small lakes that characterize this subarctic environment. The survey remains a primary source for researchers studying the historical boundaries and natural state of the peninsula prior to modern infrastructure or more recent geological changes in the region.
