1954 Map of Russian Mission C-4

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Kalskag and Lower Kalskag anchor this mid-century survey, situated along a prominent bend of the Kuskokwim River. The landscape is defined by the transition from the river lowlands to the elevated Portage Mountains in the east. This region serves as a critical traditional transit corridor, evidenced by the Yukon-Kuskokwim Portage and Paimiut Portage routes that cut through the terrain. To the west, large water bodies like Arhymot Lake and Kukaklik Lake dominate the tundra, interconnected by a network of seasonal routes including a Winter Trail. The mapping, based on 1952 aerial photography and field-annotated in 1954, captures the infrastructure of the era, such as the local Landing Strip and small drainages like Mud Creek and Crooked Creek.
