1952 Map of Saint Michael B-2

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Norton Sound dominates this mid-century topographic perspective of the Alaska coastline, where the land dissolves into a complex network of marshes and waterways. The coastal lowlands are defined by the winding paths of the Pikmiktalik River and the Kogok River, which meander through a landscape predominantly under fifty feet in elevation. The cartography, based on 1951 aerial photography, reveals the vital seasonal transport routes of the era, specifically the Winter Trail that skirts the shoreline. A solitary Cabin situated near the riverbanks provides a rare point of human habitation in this subarctic environment, offering a specific location for those researching the early postwar occupancy and movement through the Second Judicial Division.
