1963 Map of False Pass C-2

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Cherni Island serves as the focal point of this coastal hydrographic survey, situated amidst the complex maritime environment of the Aleutians. The map documents a landscape of hazards and navigation aids, where Sandman Reefs and The Clubbing Rocks sprawl across the open waters of the Pacific Ocean. This 1963 field annotation records the precise locations of landmarks like Hague Rock Light, which provided essential guidance for vessels navigating the remote reaches of the Alaska Peninsula. The isolation of the Southwest Islands and Alma Island is evident, as no roads or trails existed in this area during the survey period. The data captures a specific moment in maritime history, reflecting the coordination between the Bureau of Land Management and the Geological Survey to delineate these land masses and underwater features.
