1951 Map of Afognak D-1

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Barren Islands rise from the meeting point of Cook Inlet and the Gulf of Alaska, marking a remote and treacherous maritime environment. Dominated by the large landmass of Ushagat Island, the archipelago features dramatic topography such as Table Mountain and Puffin Peak. This mid-century survey captures the islands as part of the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge, emphasizing their role as a sanctuary rather than a site of permanent settlement. Small pockets of human history are nonetheless recorded, including the Amatuli Lighthouse on the eastern edge and unnamed Ruins on Sud Island. The map provides a detailed view of the surrounding waters, from the shelter of Amatuli Cove to the outlying Nord Island and Sugarloaf Island, situated within the Kodiak Island Borough.
