About this map

Controller Bay and the coastal wetlands of the Alaskan shoreline dominate this 1950 survey, capturing a landscape where the Bering River and Nichawak River meet the Gulf of Alaska. The map reveals the early industrial and transit history of the region, specifically marking the Chilkat settlement and the Cannery (Aband) near the mouth of Chilkat Creek. These labels point to the shifting economic life of the coast before mid-century revisions.
