1953 Map of Port Moller

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The coastal landscape of the Alaska Peninsula is defined here by the deep inlets of Port Moller and Herendeen Bay, where the maritime economy centered on salmon and natural resources is clearly visible. The Nelson Lagoon Cannery stands as a primary economic hub near the mouth of Nelson Lagoon, supported by a network of scattered Cabins and a designated Landing Area. This 1953 compilation, based on surveys dating back to the late 1920s, shows a region where water is the primary corridor for movement, connecting isolated outposts like Pavlof and Settlements Point. Evidence of early mineral exploration appears at Mine Hbt and several Drill Hole sites along the rugged coastline near Coal Bluff and Marble Pt. The terrain transitions from the volcanic heights of Pinnacle Peak and Staniukovich Mtn down to the extensive marshes and braided streams of the Caribou River and David River.
