1951 Map of Sitka B-6

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Chichagof Island and Kruzof Island dominate this coastal survey, where the intricate shoreline of the Tongass National Forest meets the open Pacific Ocean. The landscape is defined by deep fjords and inlets, such as Slocum Arm and Kalinin Bay, which provided sheltered waters for early maritime navigation. Topographical markers like Khaz Peak and Mt Georgiana served as essential sightings for mariners navigating the hazardous Fortuna Reefs.
