1963 Map of Simeonof Island

About this map

Simeonof Nat Wildlife Rfg dominates the eastern reach of this coastal survey, encompassing the sanctuary waters surrounding Simeonof Island and the Murie Islets. The map illustrates a remote maritime environment within the Shumagin Islands, where landmasses like Nagai Island and Chernabura Island are defined by sharp coastal features such as Saddlers Mistake and Point Farewell. Navigation and hydrography are central themes, with soundings and seafloor data covering the Shumagin Bank and passages like Twelve Fathom Strait and Otter Strait. The interior of the larger islands is characterized by high points like Mountain Point, while the coastline is dotted with isolated anchorages including Simeonof Hbr and Northeast Harbor. This maritime record focuses on the relationship between the Pacific Ocean and these isolated outposts of the Aleutian chain, captured during a period of active offshore protraction and hydrographic study.
