To investigate the role of atomic gas in the interaction of massive stars with the interstellar medium, a 21 cm survey was made of a region surrounding four young, outer Galaxy open clusters, NGC 281, 433, 436, and 457. A rectangular area ranging in Galactic longitude from 115 to 133 deg, and in latitude from -10 to -1 deg, was observed with the NRAO 140 foot telescope. Most of this region was fully sampled, resulting in spatial resolution equal to the telescope's 21 arcmin beamwidth. The data are presented as longitude-latitude and latitude-velocity contour maps. A catalog of atomic gas features (e.g., clouds, filaments, and shells) is given.
