1958 Map of Teller
USGS Topo · Published 1958About this map
The westernmost edge of the North American continent meets the Bering Strait in this mid-century survey of the Seward Peninsula. At the tip of the land, the village of Wales sits near Cape Prince of Wales, while further south along the coast, the settlement of York and the now-noted Pelazuk (Aband) reflect the sparse coastal habitation of the Second Judicial Division. The map captures the international boundary line established by the U.S.-Russia Convention of 1867, passing between Big Diomede Island and Little Diomede Island. Inland, the landscape is defined by the York Mountains and the Kigluaiak Mountains, where a network of trails like the Winter Trail and Tractor Trail connect remote points such as the Nuluk Shelter Cabin. The intricate waterways of the Imuruk Basin and Grantley Harbor near Teller underscore the area's reliance on maritime and frozen-trail navigation.
