1951 Map of Sitka D-7

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Lisianski Inlet serves as the central waterway of this mid-century survey on Chichagof Island, cutting deep through the mountains of the Tongass National Forest. The map documents the early years of Pelican, an incorporated town specifically excluded from the surrounding forest land, alongside smaller coastal outposts like Sunnyside and a Logging Camp further down the inlet. This is a landscape shaped by maritime access and resource extraction, evidenced by the presence of the Apex Mine and El Nido Mine tucked into the slopes near the head of Cann Creek.
