1952 Map of Nunivak Island A-7

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Nunivak Island is depicted here along its westernmost edge, where the land meets the Bering Sea at the prominent headland of Cape Mohican. The map captures a landscape defined by seasonal subsistence patterns and coastal features, within the boundaries of the Nunivak National Wildlife Refuge. Traces of indigenous habitation and land use are evident in labels for seasonal sites like Ikookmiut (Summer Camp) and Mikisagimiut (Summer Camp), providing spatial context for traditional activities before the mid-century period. Along the shoreline, the topography transitions from the Sand and Boulder Beach to the steep elevations of Binakbak Bluff. Significant hydrological features such as the Dooksoak River and Dooksoak Lagoon dominate the southern portion of the sheet, while navigational markers like Ikook Pt and Nabangoyak Rock define the maritime approach to the island.
