1987 Map of Kodiak C-2 NE

About this map

US Coast Guard Reservation land dominates the western edge of this 1980s coastal study, bordering the complex maritime infrastructure of Kodiak Airport. The terrain transitions from the elevations of Zaimka Ridge down to a series of deeply recessed inlets, including Womens Bay, Middle Bay, and Kalsin Bay. This provisional survey reflects the logistical importance of the area, where the Kodiak Island Highway provides a critical overland link between coastal landmarks like Cliff Point and the interior drainage of Mayflower Creek. Numerous small islands and rocky hazards, such as Queer Island and Viesoki Island, are meticulously positioned within the larger expanse of Chiniak Bay. Freshwater features like Snag Lake and Dragonfly Lake sit just inland from the shoreline, illustrating the immediate shift from marine to alpine environments characteristic of this part of the island.
