1948 Map of St Lawrence

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The remote expanse of St. Lawrence Island is documented here following 1943 aerial photography, capturing the Bering Sea outpost during a period of transition for its indigenous communities. Settlements like Gambell and Savoonga anchor the northern coastline, while the interior is crisscrossed by seasonal routes including the Spring Trail to Gambell and the Winter Trail to Savoonga. These trails reflect the vital subsistence patterns of the era, connecting established villages with seasonal outposts such as Siknik Trapping Camp and Ataaka's Camp.
