1952 Map of Afognak

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Afognak Island and the surrounding archipelago define this mid-century survey of the northern Kodiak region. The landscape reflects a period of transition, noting several former settlements such as Afognak (Aband) and Kaguyak (Aband) alongside established centers like Port William. The map illustrates the complex coastline of Shelikof Strait and Cook Inlet, where the Katmai National Monument meets the sea at Cape Douglas. Navigational and communication infrastructure is present at the Shuyak Radio Communication Center on Shuyak Island. The interior is characterized by significant elevations such as Mt Douglas and Paramanof Mtn, while the water bodies of Malina Lake and the Afognak River indicate the freshwater resources of the Chugach National Forest area.
