1943 Map of Ugashik

About this map

Pilot Point and the coastal waters of Ugashik Bay anchor this 1943 survey of the Alaska Peninsula, showcasing a landscape defined by its complex hydrology and volcanic peaks. The map details the transition from the low-lying wetlands of the west, drained by the Ugashik River and Dog Salmon River, to the dramatic elevations of the east. Significant inland water bodies like Upper Ugashik Lake, Lower Ugashik Lake, and the southern reaches of Becharof Lake dominate the central terrain.
