1951 Map of Norton Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

Norton Bay and the adjacent Norton Sound define this coastal landscape, where the sea meets a network of interior rivers and rugged highlands. The 1951 geography highlights a remote logistics network of essential shelters, including the Shaktolik Roadhouse and several isolated outposts like Old Woman Cabin and Tenmile Cabin. These features trace the historical overland routes through the Kaltag Mountains and toward the Yukon drainage via the Portage. Cultural and administrative boundaries are prominent, such as the Norton Bay Native Res and the Reindeer Reservation on the peninsula near Cape Denbigh. The map documents a landscape of essential survival hubs, from the Shaktolik Landing Area to the Foothills Roadhouse, situated between the tide-flats and the peaks of Debauch Mountain.
