1948 Map of Ketchikan A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Gravina Island and the eastern edge of Prince of Wales Island dominate this coastal survey, separated by the wide expanse of the Clarence Strait. Based on 1948 aerial photography with minor revisions through 1963, the map documents a wilderness landscape defined by maritime navigation and resource extraction within the Tongass National Forest. Evidence of past industry is found at the Sawmill (Aband) located near Dall Head, indicating the area's history with the regional timber trade.
