1951 Map of Seward D-4

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The glacier-carved coastline of the Chugach National Forest is the defining characteristic of this coastal Alaska region. Dramatic ice flows like Roaring Glacier, Dirty Glacier, and Bettles Glacier descend into the deep waters of Harriman Fiord, while human industry appears in small pockets along the shore. Remote mineral sites such as Granite Mine near Hobo Bay and Lansing Mine further south point to the area's prospecting history. Navigation markers, including the Pt Pigot Light, guide travel between Passage Canal and Port Wells. Local activity is grounded in sheltered waters like Logging Camp Bay and Pirate Cove, providing essential anchorage within the larger network of Cochrane Bay and Blackstone Bay.
