1963 Map of Port Moller A-1

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Nagai Island dominates this mid-century maritime survey, showcasing the intricate coastal geography of the Shumagin Islands in the North Pacific Ocean. This map detail reveals a deeply indented shoreline where natural maritime refuges like Sanborn Harbor, Eagle Harbor, and Falmouth Harbor cut into the landmass. The presence of specialized hydrographic data, compiled from USC&GS charts, provides depth soundings across the West Nagai Strait and into smaller inlets like Caton Cove and Porpoise Harbor. Notable landmarks such as Wooly Head and Cape Horn serve as critical navigational markers for the region's shipping routes. The lack of roads or trails on the island emphasizes its maritime-dependent economy and the significance of these sheltered waters for coastal operations in the early 1960s.
