1954 Map of Taylor Mountains B-3

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Nushagak River meanders across this northern interior landscape, defining the drainage patterns for a series of tributary waters including Fifteenmile Creek and Burnt Cabin Creek. The terrain is characterized by the prominent elevation of Butch Mountain in the northwest, which stands as a landmark above the complex system of river bends and surrounding lowlands. Mapped by the Army Map Service and annotated in the mid-1950s, the document reflects a period when this region was primarily accessed via its watercourses. The lower portions of the map follow the Vukpalik Creek system, illustrating the unsurveyed and unmarked land lines predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management. This topographic study captures the wilderness character of the Dillingham region before significant human infrastructure altered the natural flow of these glacial-fed interior basins.
