1951 Map of Port Alexander B-2

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Baranof Island's eastern coastline along the Chatham Strait reveals a maritime landscape defined by its deep coves and scattered outpost settlements during the mid-twentieth century. The map documents the northern reaches of the City and Borough of Sitka, showing the transition of early twentieth-century industry as New Port Walter is marked as abandoned. Scientific and logistical infrastructure is prominent at Little Port Walter, where a Fisheries Research Station and a Gaging Sta on Sashin Creek indicate the importance of natural resource management.
