1955 Map of Ketchikan C-1

About this map

Portland Canal serves as the central focal point of this 1950s survey, marking the international maritime boundary between the British Columbia and United States. This portion of the Tongass National Forest is dominated by the steep elevations of the Halleck Range, which rises sharply from the eastern shoreline. The map documents a strictly coastal orientation, with numerous maritime landmarks used for navigation and boundary monitoring, including Verdure Pt, Miners Pt, and the small outcrop of Green Island.
