1952 Map of Sitka

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Chichagof Island and Baranof Island dominate this mid-century reconnaissance of the Alexander Archipelago, showing a landscape defined by maritime industry and remote outposts. The coastal settlement of Sitka serves as the primary hub, surrounded by a complex network of waterways including Sitka Sound and the narrow Peril Strait. Commercial activity is evidenced by several remote sites such as the Dora Cannery Pt, a Logging Camp near Sunnyside, and the Cobol Mine on the western shore of Chichagof.
