1951 Map of Petersburg C-5

About this map

Kupreanof Island dominates this 1951 topographic study, showing a roadless wilderness within the Tongass National Forest as it appeared at mid-century. The landscape is defined by an intricate drainage system where Irish Creek and Keku Creek flow through heavily contoured terrain toward the western shoreline. Along the southern edge, Kushneahin Lake sits just inland from the coastal indentations of Totem Bay, while the eastern reaches are marked by the winding course of the Castle River.
