1951 Map of Rat Islands

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Rat Islands at the edge of the Bering Sea and Pacific Ocean are documented here in a survey capturing the archipelago's strategic and natural profile. Amchitka Island, the southernmost major landmass on this sheet, reveals a concentrated geography of naval and aviation interest, most notably the Military Airport situated near the sheltered waters of Constantine Harbor. This coastline is punctuated by features such as Makarius Bay and North Bight, illustrating the isolation of these outposts during the mid-century era.
