1954 Map of Nunivak Island C-1

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Nelson Island is defined by a series of prominent peaks and coastal settlements along the Bering Sea in the mid-1950s. The village of Tanunak, located on its namesake Tanunak Bay, serves as a primary coastal hub, while Toksook Bay appears with its essential Landing Strip and proximity to the North Fork Toksook River. The interior is dominated by heights such as Kilinupak Mountain, Ugchirnak Mountain, and Nealruk Mountain, which overlook a network of waterways including the Ikalugtulik River and Alakurhak River. The coastline is heavily articulated with geographic markers like Cape Vancouver, Chinit Point, and Talurarevuk Point. This survey captures the traditional landscape of the Qaluyaarmiut people, documented during an era of expanding civil infrastructure, including the seasonal Nililugruk and various Cabins scattered near the shores of Hazen Bay.
