1959 Map of Icy Bay D-2 and D-3

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The remote glacial shoreline of the Gulf of Alaska is meticulously charted in this late 1950s survey of the Yakutat region. The map captures the complex interaction of land and water around Icy Bay, where features like Point Riou Spit and Tsimpshian Point define the protected waters of Riou Bay. On the eastern shore, Sacred Lake sits just inland from the mouth of the Yahtse River, providing a rare inland water body amidst the shifting sands and moraines.
