1950 Map of Solomon B-6

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Cape Nome stands as a prominent landmark on this coastal survey, marking the transition between the open waters of Norton Sound and the protected reaches of Safety Sound. The shoreline is characterized by a narrow spit that separates these waters, providing a natural harbor for the small settlement at Port Safety. Here, the presence of the Port Safety Roadhouse and a nearby Ferry crossing indicates the area's importance as a stop for travelers along the Seward Peninsula coast during the mid-20th century.
