1952 Map of Afognak

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The coastal reaches of Kodiak Island Borough and the Alaska Peninsula meet across the deep waters of Shelikof Strait in this early 1950s survey. The map details the complex shoreline of Afognak Island, where the Afognak National Forest encompasses a landscape of rugged inlets like Paramanof Bay and Izhut Bay. Indigenous and colonial history is evident in the presence of Aleut Village, Afognak, and Kaguyak (Abandoned). On the northern edge, the Barren Islands including Ushagat Island and Sud I stand as sentinels between Stevenson Entrance and Kennedy Entrance. Inland from the coast, the topography is dominated by glacial features such as Spotted Glacier and Fourpeaked Glacier near Mt Douglas, marking the wilderness character of the Katmai National Monument.
