1954 Map of Sleetmute B-5

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Chuilnuk Mountains dominate the southwestern portion of this mid-century topographic study, their high ridgelines rising above a landscape defined by glacial activity and drainage networks. Derived from aerial photography taken in 1953 and 1955, the map represents a period when this part of Alaska was being systematically documented by the Army Map Service and the Geological Survey using photogrammetric methods. The intricate meandering of the Chuilnuk River as it winds through the lower elevations highlights the complex hydraulic patterns of the region, while the headwaters of Chineekluk Creek and Portage Creek drain the western slopes. This survey provides a baseline of the land before significant modern changes, documenting unsurveyed and unmarked locations pre-determined by the Bureau of Land Management for regional administration.
