1996 Map of Sumdum B-5

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this Alaskan coastal reach, where the deep waters of Stephens Passage meet the intricate inlets of Hobart Bay and Port Houghton. The landscape reflects a mid-1990s intersection of industrial activity and federal preservation, notably the Chuck River Wilderness and the presence of a Logging Camp and multiple Log Transfer Facility sites. Navigational markers such as the Lighthouse Reserve Five Finger Helispot Lighthouse at The Five Fingers underscore the maritime importance of these passages. Inland, the terrain rises toward the Fanshaw Range, while evidence of earlier mineral exploration remains at the K and D Mine. The inclusion of the CAA Relay Station (Ruins) near Rocky Point provides a specific point of interest for those tracing the history of telecommunications and aviation infrastructure in this remote archipelago.
