1953 Map of Petersburg C-1

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Chief Shakes Hot Springs serves as a distinct landmark on this 1950s survey, situated where the Stikine River begins to divide into a complex network of channels and sloughs. This particular stretch of the Alaskan coast reveals a landscape defined by glacial activity and shifting silts, most notably seen at Popof Glacier and the large sandy expanse of The Desert on Andrew Island. Unlike the heavily forested slopes nearby, these tidal and glacial features reflect the dynamic nature of the delta environment.
