1950 Map of Nushagak Bay B-4

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Nushagak Peninsula dominates the northeastern corner of this 1950 coastal survey, revealing a landscape defined by intricate tidal flats and marshy terrain. Produced through a collaboration between the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey and the Geological Survey, the map focuses on the complex transition between land and the sea within Bristol Bay. These hydrographic details, compiled from USC&GS charts and 1947 aerial photography, document the shifting Mud banks and shallow waters that characterize the region's shoreline. The absence of roads or established settlements emphasizes the remote nature of the Alaskan coast during the mid-century period, providing a precise baseline for studying coastal erosion and environmental change in this subarctic environment.
