1952 Map of Nushagak Bay D-4

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The meandering course of the Igushik River dominates this mid-century survey of the Nushagak Bay region, reflecting the intricate coastal hydrology of Alaska's Third Judicial Division. Derived from aerial photography and Usc&GS field work, the map documents the settlement of Manokotak and the smaller site of Tuklung, both positioned relative to a complex system of tidal flats and inland waterways. The landscape transitions from high, contoured ridges in the northwest to broad alluvial lowlands where the Tuklung River and Tunulung River converge. This 1952 study provides a precise record of these watercourses before shifting channels and modern development altered the local environment, capturing a period when small settlements and natural water routes were the primary geographic markers.
