1961 Map of Mount Fairweather A-3

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Glacier Bay National Monument borders the treacherous coastline where the Gulf of Alaska meets the Pacific Ocean in this 1961 field-annotated survey. The map focuses heavily on hydrographic data and maritime landmarks along the jagged eastern shore, featuring the Polka Peninsula and the prominent Point Villaluenga. An Indefinite Boundary runs through the open waters, separating the coastal monument waters from the open gulf. This nautical-heavy sheet includes detailed soundings and underwater contours compiled from previous coastal charts, providing a mid-century record of the sea floor and rocky outcrops like Graves Rocks and Polka Rk before the region’s further modern mapping and designation changes.
