1973 Map of Anacortes North

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Guemes Island and the northern waterfront of Anacortes anchor this coastal survey, where the terrestrial landscape is defined by the complex interface of Padilla Bay and Samish Bay. This environment is shaped by extensive Tidal Flats and specialized land use, including the Camp Kirby facility and several protected natural areas such as the San Juan Islands Nat Wildlife Refuge. The map reveals a mix of recreational and industrial activity, from Saddlebag Island State Park to the Burlington Northern rail line and the March Point Light. Local history is preserved in features like Eden Cem on the western shore of Guemes Island and the Island View Sch further south. The proximity of Cap Sante and its namesake park to the urban grid of Anacortes provides a detailed look at the 1970s development of this maritime hub.
