1952 Map of Russian Mission C-3

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Portage Mountains dominate the northern terrain of this 1950s interior landscape, giving way to the sweeping curves of the Kuskokwim River. In this era before extensive infrastructure, the river served as the primary corridor for movement, supplemented by a Winter Trail that cuts across the marshy lowlands to the east. The map captures a moment when the Bureau of Land Management was predetermining land lines for unsurveyed areas, reflecting the early administrative efforts to organize this territory following the war. Sparse human presence is marked only by a solitary Cabin situated along the riverbank near a significant bend. To the south, Discovery Creek winds through an expansive network of wetlands and small lakes, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Kuskokwim floodplain where land and water often merge.
