1951 Map of Mt Fairweather

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Mt Fairweather stands as the towering focal point of this 1950s reconnaissance, marking the international border between Alaska and British Columbia. The landscape is dominated by the massive ice fields of the Fairweather Range and the intricate fjords of the Glacier Bay National Monument. To the south, the map details the maritime navigation routes through Cross Sound and Icy Strait, where small settlements like Elfin Cove and Port Althorp provided essential harbors for the local fishing fleet.
