1954 Map of Mount Fairweather A-1

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Chichagof Island dominates this mid-century coastal survey, revealing a landscape defined by deep fjords and isolated outposts within the Tongass National Forest. The transition of the local economy is evident at Port Althorp (Aband), which contrasts with the small clusters of activity at Gull Cove and a site simply marked as Village. These small settlements are positioned to take advantage of the complex waterways including Idaho Inlet and Port Althorp, which provided essential navigation routes before modern infrastructure reached this part of the Alexander Archipelago.
