About this map

Port Nellie Juan serves as the focal point of this maritime and glacial landscape in the early 1950s. The presence of the Port Nellie Juan Cannery and its associated Aqueduct on the eastern shore of McClure Bay highlights the active fishing and processing industry of the era. This industrial outpost sits at the edge of a complex network of fjords and inlets, including the branching fingers of West Finger Inlet and East Finger Inlet.

The western edge of the sheet is dominated by the massive Tebenkof Glacier, while smaller ice features like Contact Gl feed into the southern bays. Significant inland water bodies like Lake Shrode and Lake Jack sit nestled between high peaks, indicated by numerous triangulation stations such as VABM 2196 Lang. The deep channels of Cochrane Bay and Culross Passage define the transport routes around the large landmass of Culross Island.
