1948 Map of Petersburg B-1

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Wrangell Island dominates this mid-century coastal survey, separated from the mainland by the sweeping waters of the Eastern Passage and Blake Channel. Within the dense forests of the Tongass National Forest, the landscape is defined by steep glacial features and narrow waterways. A lone Mine and scattered Cabins near Virginia Lake suggest the era's small-scale resource extraction and remote living.
