1951 Map of Port Alexander D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Biorka Island and the complex archipelago of Sitka Sound define this coastal landscape, which was meticulously field-annotated in the early 1950s. The map details the transition from the open Pacific Ocean into sheltered waters like Redoubt Bay and Kanga Bay. Evidence of localized settlement is visible at Goddard near the Hot Springs, as well as various clusters of cabins scattered along the rocky shorelines of the Taigud Islands and Legma Island.
