1963 Map of Cold Bay C-1

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Bristol Bay and the Bering Sea meet along a sweeping, tide-affected shoreline at Cape Leontovich in this remote Alaskan coastal landscape. This region is defined by the complex drainage of the Cathedral River, which winds northward through the broad Cathedral Valley before reaching the bay. The map portrays an environment largely dominated by water and shifting terrain, featuring a dense network of marshes and unnamed lakes that characterize the low-lying coastal plains. Above these flats, Black Hill provides a primary vertical landmark in the north, while North Creek marks the southwestern boundary. Compiled from 1962 aerial photography and 1965 hydrographic data, the survey details a wilderness without roads or trails, preserving the geography of the Aleutian Peninsula's northern coast in its mid-century state.
