1988 Map of Port Moller

About this map

The Alaska Peninsula coastline and the jagged reaches of the Shumagin Islands are captured here in a transition period of the late 1980s. Maritime and industrial activity is centered on points of land like Sand Point and Squaw Harbor on Unga Island, while the northern coast shows the remote Nelson Lagoon Village near the Bering Sea. The map reveals a landscape defined by volcanic peaks such as Pavlof Volcano, Little Pavlof, and Mount Hague, which loom over the expansive Alaska Peninsula National Wildlife Refuge. Detailed bathymetry illustrates the deep inlets of Port Moller and Herendeen Bay, where the geography supported small-scale operations noted by labels like Cannery, Miner, and the legacy of resource extraction at Coal Bluff. This survey emphasizes the intersection of protected wilderness and the isolated fishing and mining outposts of the Aleutians East Borough.
