1967 Map of Simeonof Island

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Simeonof Nat Wildlife Rfg anchors this maritime survey, encompassing the furthest reaches of the Shumagin Islands in the mid-1960s. This remote portion of the Pacific Ocean is characterized by scattered landmasses such as Simeonof Island and Chernabura Island, separated by hazardous passages like Twelve Fathom Strait and Otter Strait. The coastal hydrography, compiled from earlier charts, reveals the maritime importance of sheltered waters including Simeonof Harbor and Northeast Harbor. Shoreline landmarks with curious names like Saddlers Mistake on Nagai Island and the isolated Murie Islets suggest a history of navigation and early exploration through the Shumagin Bank. The map provides a look at the topographical and nautical layout of these outer islands before modern navigational changes.
