1963 Map of Chignik A-1

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

The Alaska Peninsula National Wildlife Refuge dominates this coastal landscape, protecting a significant stretch of the Alaska Peninsula shoreline. Photogrammetric data from the early 1960s documents a jagged maritime environment where steep elevations meet the Pacific Ocean. Key geographical markers include the prominent Cape Castle and the nearby Tuliumnit Pt, which frame the entrance to Castle Bay. Off the coast, the isolated Chankliut Island sits as a lonely sentinel in the sea. The map provides a detailed record of coastal indentations such as Nikolai Cove and Necessity Cove, offering insight into the natural harbors and topographic contours of this wilderness area before later environmental and administrative revisions.
