1947 Map of Kodiak D-3

About this map

Port Lions sits along the northern coast of Kodiak Island, serving as a primary settlement within this complex maritime landscape. The map details the intricate waterways of the Kodiak Archipelago, where Whale Island and Raspberry Island are separated by the narrow Raspberry Strait and the broader Kupreanof Strait. To the south, the deep waters of Kizhuyak Bay cut into the mountainous interior, flanked by heights such as Sharatin Mountain and Elbow Mtn. Much of the western terrain is preserved within the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge, reflecting the region's emphasis on habitat conservation. The chart also records numerous coastal landmarks used for local navigation, including Barabara Cove, Settler Cove, and Thomas Rock, capturing the archipelago's geography shortly after the mid-century period.
