1952 Map of Afognak B-1

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Afognak Island reveals its jagged, glacially-carved shoreline in this mid-century survey, dominated by the maritime reaches of Seal Bay and Tonki Bay. This rugged coastal landscape is largely preserved within the Chugach National Forest, showing a wilderness almost entirely devoid of permanent infrastructure, save for isolated Cabins near Paula Lake. The map details a complex hydrographic network where freshwater bodies like Laura Lake and Gretchen Lake sit just inland from the saltwater inlets of Phoenix Bay and Saposa Bay. Small maritime hazards and landmarks, including the Seal Islands and the Evsky Rock, highlight the area's importance for local coastal navigation. The presence of named points like Tolstoi Pt and Posliedni Pt reflects the enduring Russian influence on the toponymy of the Kodiak Archipelago.
