1964 Map of St Lawrence

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Gambell and Savoonga anchor this mid-century survey of St. Lawrence Island, an environment dominated by volcanic topography and coastal lagoons. The central Kookooligit Mountains rise above a landscape marked by seasonal activity, where seasonal outposts like Siknik Trapping Camp and Reindeer Camp indicate the traditional subsistence patterns of the era. The island's deep history is explicitly noted at the Kookoolik (Old Village Site) near Kookoolik Cape, providing a point of reference for ancestral Yupik settlements. Along the complex shoreline, features such as Niyrakpak Lagoon and the Kongkok Basin define the drainage and hunting grounds. This 1964 edition reflects data compiled from late 1940s Army Map Service records and coastal hydrography by the Usc&GS, documenting the remote geography before modern shifts in northern maritime infrastructure.
