1959 Map of Dixon Entrance

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Dixon Entrance serves as the international maritime threshold between Alaska and British Columbia, separating the Alexander Archipelago from the Queen Charlotte Islands. This mid-century survey records a landscape defined by traditional Haida and Tlingit settlement patterns, specifically noting Howkan, Koianglas, and Klinkwan as established sites along the complex shoreline of Long Island and Prince of Wales Island. To the south on Graham Island, the twin communities of Masset and Old Masset sit at the mouth of Masset Harbour.
