1951 Map of Ugashik C-2

About this map

Volcanic activity and glacial hydrology define this portion of the Alaska Peninsula, where the massive bulk of Mt Peulik rises above fields of Lava. The settlement of Ugashik sits at the head of a complex drainage system, positioned where the Upper Ugashik Lake feeds into the winding Ugashik Creek. This 1951 aerial survey captures a raw landscape dominated by thermal features and high-relief terrain, evidenced by the numerous labels for Spring and Springs clustered near Hot Springs Creek.
