1952 Map of Russian Mission D-5

About this map

The Yukon River dominates this mid-century landscape, carving a wide path through an intricate network of waterways and islands. Large landmasses like Pearl Island and Base Island segment the river's flow, while the northern bank is defined by the elevation of the Paimiut Hills. This survey, based on 1950s aerial photography, reveals a region where seasonal movement was essential, as evidenced by the Winter Trail cutting through the terrain north of the river.
