1954 Map of Norton Bay D-2

About this map

The Ungalik River carves a winding path through this northern terrain, serving as the primary geographic feature of the landscape during the mid-1950s. This aerial-derived survey documents a largely unsettled wilderness where watercourses define the layout of the land. In the southeastern portion of the map, Bapook Creek flows through the drainages, marking one of the few named tributaries in this interior region. The topographic detail reveals a complex network of ridges and basins, indicating a period when mapping was heavily reliant on photogrammetric methods from 1952 and 1955 aerial photography. This sheet records the area as it existed before any modern road development, showing a purely natural environment focused on these vital waterways.
