1952 Map of Saint Michael A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Norton Sound and Pastol Bay dominate this coastal survey of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region during the early 1950s. The landscape is a dense network of thousands of small tundra ponds and meandering waterways, including the Pikmiktalik River and Kogok River. Human presence is marked by the Winter Trail which follows the coastline, providing a vital connection between points like Coffee Point and the prominent headland at Point Romanof, where the Romanof Light aided coastal navigation. A notable detail for local historians is the site of Nokrot (Aband) near the northern shore, explicitly noted as abandoned at the time of the 1952 field annotation. The map preserves the geography of this remote delta before modern changes, documenting traditional seasonal routes and the shifting nature of this water-saturated terrain.
