1949 Map of Kodiak C-2

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The U S Naval Reservation dominates this post-war coastline of Kodiak Island, illustrating the strategic importance of the area in the late 1940s. Centered around Womens Bay, the map reveals a concentrated military infrastructure including the Military Airport near Abbert and the Military Seaplane Base. Beyond the coastal installations, the landscape rises into the Sargent Range and Old Womens Mountain, where numerous small lakes like Lake Aurel and Lake Phil are tucked into the high terrain. The maritime character of the region is defined by the protected waters of Middle Bay and Kalsin Bay, separated by the prominent Zaimka Ridge. These waters are dotted with hazards and landmarks such as Taller Pinnacle and Svitlak Island, reflecting the intensive hydrographic surveying required for safe navigation along these shores.
