1954 Map of Taylor Mountains B-2

About this map

The Nushagak River winds through the northwestern reaches of this mid-century survey, creating the prominent oxbow known as Big Bend. This landscape is defined by its drainages, where several creek systems converge toward the main river valley. Along the banks of the Nushagak, isolated Cabin sites suggest the seasonal dwellings and trapping outposts that sustained life in the Taylor Mountains during the 1950s. To the east, the terrain is marked by the headwaters and courses of Portage Creek and Moose Creek, which carve through the higher elevations. Other significant waterways such as Crooked Creek and McGeary Creek establish the drainage patterns of the western slopes, providing a clear picture of the hydrological network before the later 1980s revisions were finalized.
