1963 Map of Simeonof Island

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The Shumagin Islands archipelago rises from the North Pacific in this survey, showcasing the remote maritime geography of the Aleutian chain in the early 1960s. Central to the sheet is the Simeonof Nat Wildlife Mfg, encompassing the entirety of Simeonof Island, which features the sheltered waters of Simeonof Hbr and the nearby Murie Islets. The map illustrates the hazardous coastal navigation of the era, marking landforms like Saddlers Mistake and Point Farewell alongside the depths of Twelve Fathom Strait. To the west, the rugged profile of Nagai Island is defined by Sadler Peak and Mountain Point, while Chernabura Island stands as a prominent outpost to the south. This charting was compiled from both 1:63,360 scale topographic surveys and hydrographic data, capturing the intersection of island terrain and the submerged Shumagin Bank.
