1953 Map of Petersburg C-1

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The Stikine River dominates this mid-century coastal landscape, branching into a complex network of sloughs and islands as it meets the sea. The 1953 field data reveals a dynamic environment where the river splits around Fifteenmile Island and Andrew Island, forming the distinctive The Desert and the Cottonwood Islands. To the north, the Popof Glacier and Shakes Lake illustrate the glacial forces shaping the mainland, while the southern reaches are defined by high-elevation landmarks like Wrangell Peak and Garnet Mtn.
