1951 Map of Taylor Mountains

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

The Taylor Mountains dominate this 1951 study of the Alaskan interior, representing a landscape defined by expansive drainage basins and the divide between the Kuskokwim River and the Nushagak River. In the northern reaches, the small settlement of Kashegelok sits along the Holitna River, while a single Winter Trail cuts across the northwest corner near Atsaksovluk Creek. The map captures a moment of administrative transition, clearly marking the boundary between the Fourth and Third Judicial Divisions. Toward the south, the terrain gives way to a massive lake system including Tikchik Lake, Upnuk Lake, and Chikuminuk Lake, punctuated by landmarks like Ongutvak Mtn and Tikchik Mtn. The presence of Cinnabar Creek and various rapids along the Salmon River indicates the early focus on water-based travel and mineral potential in this part of the Dillingham region.
