1950 Map of Teller D-4

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Arctic Lagoon and the complex tidal waters of Kugrupaga Inlet dominate this coastal Seward Peninsula landscape as it appeared at mid-century. Mapping by the Army Map Service reveals a low-lying, water-logged terrain defined by the winding courses of the Nuluk River and Kugrupaga River. A notable human element is the Winter Trail, which skims the northern edge of the lagoon, indicating the seasonal transportation routes vital for navigating this subarctic region before more permanent infrastructure arrived. The interior is a dense network of drainage systems, including Tuttle Creek, California Creek, and Trout Creek, flowing through varied elevations. Further south, the map details the headwaters of the Pinguk River and its tributaries like Cooper Creek, illustrating the natural hydrological patterns of the Second Judicial Division of Alaska.
