About this map

The Katalla settlement and its industrial remnants anchor this coastal survey, reflecting a brief era of Alaskan oil production. Situated along Katalla Bay, the landscape includes the Katalla Oil Field and a Refinery, connected to the interior via an Old Railroad Grade. This infrastructure, following the curve of the Katalla River and Katalla Slough, points to the region's early 20th-century economic ambitions before the industry shifted elsewhere.
