1951 Map of Port Alexander D-4

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Baranof Island is defined by its deep fjords and glacial lakes in this mid-century survey of the terrain south of Sitka. The landscape is dominated by the massive Redoubt Lake and the intricate branching of Crawfish Inlet and West Crawfish Inlet. Evidence of early industrial and transit activity is visible via the Power Site Trail near Green Lake and a solitary Mine located on the slopes of Eureka Mountain near Silver Bay. The hydrographic data, compiled from Coast and Geodetic Survey charts, captures the precise coastline of Deep Inlet and the Rakof Islands. Scattered cabins along the shoreline and interior lakes like Salmon Lake suggest a seasonal or subsistence presence in this remote maritime environment.
