1951 Map of Blying Sound D-1 and D-2

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Montague Island's southern coastline faces the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of Alaska in this survey based on mid-century aerial photography. The map depicts a wilderness landscape of coastal inlets and mountainous terrain, where human presence is marked only by isolated Cabins near the shoreline. Significant drainage systems such as the Patton River and Nellie Martin River feed into the expansive Patton Bay, while the western edge is defined by the Montague Strait. The topography is detailed with coastal landmarks like Cape Cleare and Point Bazil, alongside the offshore Wooded Islands. This document preserves the late-period frontier character of the region before modern changes, illustrating the intricate network of glacial streams including Tortuous Creek and Deception Creek that carve through the Chugach National Forest.
