1963 Map of Port Moller A-2

About this map

Unga Island and its smaller neighbor Popof Island dominate this coastal survey of the Shumagin Islands. The small settlement of Unga sits at the head of Delarof Harbor, a sheltered anchorage protected by Flagstaff Hill. This area represents a significant intersection of early 20th-century industry and maritime trade, evidenced by the presence of the Apollo Mine situated on the slopes of Apollo Mountain. To the north, the village of Squaw Harbor looks out over Baralof Bay, while the treacherous waters of the Popof Strait separate the two primary landmasses. The coastline is punctuated by navigational landmarks like Kelly Rock, Elephant Rock, and Sealion Rocks, reflecting the importance of safe passage through these North Pacific waters for the fishing and mining operations that sustained these remote communities.
