1948 Map of Craig A-1

About this map

Prince of Wales Island is documented here as it appeared in the late 1940s, revealing a landscape defined by deep fjords and isolated industrial outposts. The map highlights the intersection of the maritime economy and the interior wilderness, centered on Cholmondeley Sound and Moira Sound. A notable Cannery sits at Cannery Cove along the North Arm, serving as a primary node for the region's salmon-driven industry. To the south, Dickman Bay and Kegan Cove provide sheltered anchorage within the intricate shoreline.
