The Nushagak River heads at 6035N, 15606W and flows southwest 242 miles to join the Wood River to form Nushagak Bay, 2 miles east of Dillingham, Bristol Bay Low. An Eskimo name was recorded about 1809 by Sub. Lieutenant Ivan Filipovich Vasiliev, Imperial Russian Navy (IRN). Published as "Reka Nushegak" by Lieutenant Sarichev, Imperial Russian Navy (IRN) (1826, map 3). In 1778, Captain James Cook, Royal Navy (RN), named this feature "Bristol River." According to Lieutenant L. A.Zagoskin, Imperial Russian Navy (IRN), in 1844 the headwaters of this stream, above the Nuyakuk River, were called "Ilgayak" by the Eskimos (USGS). |
