1995 Map of Blying Sound D-3

USGS Topo · Published 1999

About this map

Montague Island and Latouche Island anchor this coastal survey, where the deep waters of Montague Strait meet the open Gulf of Alaska. The landscape is defined by the intersection of the Chugach National Forest and the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge, reflecting a mid-1990s period of federal land management and resource preservation. Near Point Woodcock, the presence of a Log Transfer Facility in Mac Leod Harbor indicates the area's industrial ties to timber, even as much of the surrounding terrain remains undeveloped. Navigational markers like the Light on Evans Island and the Alaska Marine Highway route through Elrington Passage emphasize the region's reliance on maritime transport. For those interested in remote backcountry infrastructure, the San Juan Bay Cabin (FS) is noted near the southern tip of Montague Island at San Juan Bay.
