1987 Map of Kodiak D-1 SW

About this map

Woody Island and the larger Long Island define this coastal survey of the Kodiak archipelago during the late 1980s. The landscape is marked by the strategic presence of the U S Coast Guard Reservation at Spruce Cape, signaling the maritime importance of the Woody Island Channel. On the interior of the islands, a network of freshwater bodies like Long Lake, Elephant Lake, and Dolgoi Lake are mapped alongside a single Foot Trail that traverses the northern reaches of Long Island. The jagged coastline is heavy with navigational hazards and landmarks, from Sawmill Point to the prominent Lansing Bluff. A Radio Tower on Woody Island serves as a modern landmark overlooking Cook Bay, while numerous offshore features like Vasilief Rock and Williams Reef emphasize the intricate, rock-strewn waters of the Gulf of Alaska.
