About this map

Glacier Bay National Monument dominates this mid-century landscape, showcasing the intricate coastline where the Bartlett River and Salmon River meet the coastal waters of Icy Passage. The small settlement of Gustavus is depicted with its vital infrastructure of the era, including the Gustavus Airfield, a Powerhouse, and Communication Bldg. This survey captures the region just before significant post-war expansion, highlighting the isolation of the outpost surrounded by the Beardslee Islands and the wide expanse of Icy Strait.
