1963 Map of Ugashik B-6

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Cape Menshikof overlooks the expansive Bristol Bay shoreline, where a vast Tidal Flat marks the transition between the Bering Sea and the Alaskan interior. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways, most notably the King Salmon River and the meandering Cynder River, which cut through low-lying marshlands. This 1963 field-annotated survey reveals a region largely untouched by formal infrastructure, characterized instead by water and terrain. Interior hydrology is dominated by the Pumice Creek and the small Old Creek drainage. Human activity is sparse, indicated only by a lone Cabin near the riverbanks, suggesting a landscape primarily used for seasonal subsistence or trapping during the mid-20th century. The mapping of this quadrangle relied heavily on photogrammetric methods from 1957 aerial photography, capturing the shifting drainage patterns of the Bristol Bay coast.
