1954 Map of Kodiak D-4

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Port Bailey Cannery stands as a focal point of coastal industry on the Kupreanof Peninsula, where the maritime economy of the mid-1950s is etched into the shoreline of Dry Spruce Bay. This maritime landscape is defined by its deep saltwater inlets and narrow passages, such as Uganik Passage, which separates Uganik Island from the larger mass of Kodiak Island. The topography reveals a rugged interior where heights like Kupreanof Mountain overlook Kupreanof Strait and Viekoda Bay. Evidence of earlier resource extraction is noted at a Mine (Aban'd) near Rolling Pt, while scattered Cabins and a secondary Cannery at the southern edge of the map suggest the seasonal and isolated nature of life along these shores. The presence of Raspberry Island to the north and Terror Bay to the south highlights the complex network of islands and sounds that dictated local travel and commerce.
