1952 Map of Nulato C-4

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Soonkakat River winds through this interior Alaskan wilderness, recorded in the early 1950s using aerial photography. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of small lakes and ponds, typical of the permafrost-rich lowlands of the Yukon-Koyukuk region. Along the northern edge of the map, the landscape transitions into the riverine complex of the Yukon, featuring Big Island and the meandering channels of Patsy Slough and Happy Slough. While no settlements or roads appear on this 1952 survey, the map provides a precise baseline of the hydrology and natural topography before significant mid-century changes. The intricate drainage patterns and thousands of unnamed water bodies highlight the complex aquatic ecosystem of the Alaska interior during this era of early aerial mapping.
