1948 Map of Pribilof Islands

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

St. Paul Island and St. George Island dominate this survey of the remote Pribilof Islands in the Bering Sea, based on hydrographic data and 1898 Treasury Department charts. The map reveals the critical coastal infrastructure of the mid-20th century, including the Landing Strip and Village Cove near the settlement of St Paul. The landscape is defined by volcanic features such as Bogoslof Hill, Rush Hill, and Polovina Hill, surrounded by numerous small lakes like Antones L and Big Lake. The map captures the isolation of these islands, detailing naming conventions for coastal landmarks from the High Bluffs to Garden Cove. This edition preserves the 1948 geographic state of the islands, serving as a primary record of the terrain and small outposts like St. George before modern expansion, including satellite islands like Walrus Island and Otter Island.
