1951 Map of Port Alexander D-3

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Baranof Island is documented here through a 1951 field annotation, revealing a wilderness landscape shaped by steep glacially-carved topography and deep saltwater inlets. Along the eastern shore, Red Bluff Bay serves as a focal point for former industrial activity, evidenced by the presence of a Cannery (Aband). This site, coupled with the surrounding Tongass National Forest, illustrates the mid-century transition of the Alaskan coast as remote commercial outposts began to fade.
