1961 Map of Sumdum A-3
USGS Topo · Published 1975About this map
Thomas Bay dominates the coastal landscape of this 1961 survey, where the glacial waters meet the steep topography of the Tongass National Forest. The map documents a dynamic wilderness environment characterized by the massive ice fields of the North Baird Glacier and Baird Glacier, which feed into the surrounding waterways. Along the shores of Scenery Cove, a Gaging Sta and an isolated Cabin represent the rare traces of human infrastructure in this remote reach of the Alaska Panhandle.
