1952 Map of Afognak

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Afognak Island and Shuyak Island anchor this mid-century maritime survey, revealing the remote coastal infrastructure of the Kodiak archipelago during the 1950s. The map illustrates a landscape defined by industrial and military presence, notably the Shuyak Radio Communication Center on the northern tip of the island chain. Coastal activity is concentrated around established outposts like Port Wakefield and Port Vita, while the village of Afognak and the nearby Settlement Pt indicate the primary nodes of human habitation before many communities were impacted by later geological events.
