1963 Map of Port Moller D-4

About this map

Nelson Lagoon Village sits along the narrow spit separating the Bering Sea from the shallow waters of Nelson Lagoon. This remote maritime landscape is defined by the commercial and subsistence activity centered at the Nelson Lagoon Cannery and the inland reaches of the Sapsuk River. The terrain transitions from the low-lying Kudobin Islands and the tidal flats of Mud Bay to prominent coastal landmarks like Miner Hill and Big Hill. Local infrastructure is sparse, characterized by isolated dwellings and the State Fish and Game Cabin along the riverbanks. The intricate network of waterways, including Frank Creek and the Lefthead River, illustrates a complex drainage system across the tundra and marshlands typical of the Alaska Peninsula in the early 1960s.
