1950 Map of Teller B-6

About this map

York sits at the edge of the Bering Sea on this 1950s record of Alaska's western coast. The settlement is positioned near the mouth of the Anikovik River, a coastal landscape where the land rises sharply into the Seward Peninsula uplands. Mapping by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Army Map Service reveals a specialized transportation network adapted to the harsh environment, most notably the Winter Trail which follows the coastline and river valleys. This route provided essential winter access between coastal outposts when maritime travel was restricted. The map details several small waterways including Black Cr and the Kanauguk River, alongside the Oonutaochuk Cr further inland, showing the hydrological patterns of the tundra as it meets the sea during the early Cold War era.
