1952 Map of St Michael

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Norton Sound and the intricate coastal wetlands of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta dominate this mid-century survey of the St Michael region. The map captures a landscape defined by an enormous network of seasonal waterways, including the Kwikpak Pass, Apoon Pass, and Okwega Pass, which served as vital corridors for the coastal and riverine communities. At the northeastern edge, Stuart Island and the larger St Michael Island provide a stark contrast to the low-lying tundra, with prominent landmarks such as St Michael Mtn and Crater Mtn rising above the surrounding flats. Settlements such as Stebbins, Chaniliut, and Kotlik are positioned strategically along the coast and river mouths, reflecting a traditional reliance on the sea and the delta's salmon-rich waters. A lone Landing Strip near the town of St. Michael signals the evolving transportation needs of this remote coastal hub during the early 1950s.
