1948 Map of Nushagak Bay D-4

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Igushik River dominates this 1948 landscape, winding in tight, complex oxbows through a vast wetland of swamps and ponds. Surveyed from aerial photographs by the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey, the map captures the remote character of the Bristol Bay region during the late 1940s. The village of Manokotak is situated in the northeastern corner at the base of the upland terrain, while the settlement of Tuklung sits further south along the Tuklung River. A solitary Landing Strip near Tuklung highlights the critical role of aviation in connecting these isolated coastal communities. To the east, the Tunuing River flows into the larger river system, illustrating the intricate drainage patterns that define this part of the Alaska Peninsula.
