About this map

Nushagak Bay and its surrounding estuaries appear here as a hub of the Alaskan salmon industry during the late 1940s. The map highlights the essential maritime economy of the Bristol Bay region, marking numerous commercial outposts such as Nushagak Cannery, Igushik Cannery, and the Old Saltery. These sites, along with settlements like Kanakanak and Clarks Point, represent the human footprint on a landscape defined by shifting tides and river mouths.
