1951 Map of Craig C-6

About this map

Noyes Island dominates the southeastern quadrant of this coastal survey, situated within the expansive Tongass National Forest. The landscape is defined by complex waterways and maritime hazards, from the wide expanse of Iphigenia Bay to the narrow Sonora Passage. Along the rugged coastline of Noyes Island, landmarks like Cape Ulitka, Ulitka Bay, and Roller Bay illustrate the intricate shoreline that characterizes the Alexander Archipelago. This 1951 field check preserves the coastal geography as it was recorded shortly after the war, showing the cluster of the Maurelle Islands and the Wood Islands to the north. Smaller features such as Timbered Island and St Joseph Island serve as critical navigation points for those tracing the historical maritime routes of Southeast Alaska.
