1963 Map of False Pass D-3

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

North Walrus Peak and South Walrus Peak dominate the high ground of this coastal Alaskan landscape, where the peninsula meets the Pacific Ocean. Surveyed in the early 1960s, the map details a coastline defined by prominent landmarks like Cape Tachilni and Thinpoint, separating the deep waters of Morzhovoi Bay from Thinpoint Cove and Sandy Cove. Off the southern shore, small landmasses such as Amagat Island and Umga Island rise from the sea, providing essential navigation points in a region without established roads or trails. This 1963 survey captures the area in its raw natural state, focusing on the topographic relief of the interior peaks and the hydrographic soundings vital for maritime transit near Rush Rock and Egg Island.
