1951 Map of Ugashik B-3

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Dog Salmon River meanders through this wilderness of the Alaska Peninsula, defining a landscape of complex hydrology as it was mapped in the early 1950s. The northern reaches of the quadrangle are dominated by the expanse of Lower Ugashik Lake, which transitions into a system of smaller alpine waters such as Elizabeth Lake and Lenore Lake. Between these lakes and the winding course of Figure Eight Creek, the terrain rises toward unnamed peaks, reflecting the unsurveyed and unmarked land lines noted by the Bureau of Land Management. A single Cabin stands near the confluence of Goblet Creek, marking one of the few signs of human presence in a region primarily shaped by its drainage networks, including Black Creek and the broader watershed feeding into the Bristol Bay drainage. This map documents a period before modern development, where topographic details were derived from aerial photography and the USCE's early control points.
