1948 Map of Petersburg B-3

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Zarembo Island dominates this mid-century survey, its mountainous interior rising sharply between the waterways of Southeast Alaska. Part of the Tongass National Forest, the island is surrounded by the treacherous tidal currents of Sumner Strait to the north and Clarence Strait to the southwest. The coastline is marked by small, sheltered anchorages such as St John Harbor and Baht Harbor, which historically served as vital refuges for the region's maritime traffic.
