1951 Map of Sumdum D-6

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Stephens Passage dominates this mid-century survey of the Tongass National Forest, separating the eastern shores of Admiralty Island from the mainland's Snettisham Peninsula. The map highlights the extractive history of the region, specifically at the head of Port Snettisham where Friday Mine and the Crystal Mines are situated near the now-marked Snettisham (Aban'd) settlement. This area, accessed by water through Gilbert Bay, reflects the shift from active mining operations to a quieter wilderness state by the early 1950s.
