1948 Map of Petersburg C-1

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Chief Shakes Hot Springs and the braided channels of the Stikine River dominate this mid-century coastal landscape. The terrain is characterized by a complex network of glacial meltwater and sloughs, including Shakes Slough and Desert Island Slough, which carve out significant landmasses like Andrew Island and Fifteenmile Island. Small-scale human presence is marked by an isolated Cabin near the riverbank, suggesting the seasonal or resource-based activity typical of the Tongass National Forest during this era.
