1951 Map of Seward A-1

About this map

Montague Island dominates this 1951 topographic study, showing the northern reaches of the island as it sits within the Chugach National Forest. The map documents a coastline shaped by the Gulf of Alaska, characterized by steep elevations rising toward Montague Peak and the high point at VABM Zaikof. Along the northwestern shore, the sheltered waters of Port Chalmers are guarded by Wilby Island, providing a stark contrast to the exposed southeastern face marked by Purple Bluff.
