1948 Map of Sumdum A-5

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Cape Fanshaw stands as a prominent maritime landmark at the confluence of Stephens Passage and Frederick Sound. This 1948 survey records a transitional period for the area's coastal industry, specifically noting an Cannery (Aband) near Whitney Island, which reflects the changing economic tides of the Alaskan fishing industry in the mid-20th century. The landscape is dominated by the steep rises of the Fanshaw Range and the Bohemian Range on the northern shores of Kupreanof Island.
