1963 Map of Chignik A-7

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Alaska Peninsula terrain dominates this 1963 survey, characterized by the complex drainage systems of the Sandy River and Bear River basins. The landscape is a mix of braided river channels and scattered wetlands, reaching south to the shores of Bear Lake. Human activity in this remote region is indicated by isolated infrastructure, such as the Sandy River Landing Strip and a separate Landing Strip near the lake. A solitary Drill Hole and a remote Cabin provide evidence of early exploration and temporary habitation within what is now the Alaska Peninsula National Wildlife Refuge. The map captures the transitional period after the 1957 aerial photography and before the 1981 minor revisions, preserving the mid-century wilderness character of the peninsula.
