1959 Map of Yakutat A-3

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Gulf of Alaska coastline dominates this 1959-annotated survey, where the terrestrial landscape is defined by the shifting interface of water and land. The Akwe River and Ustay River wind through the southeastern corner of the map, carving through a broad Tidal Flat before reaching the sea. This area is situated within the Tongass National Forest, illustrating a mid-century coastal environment where infrastructure was minimal and the economy relied on small-scale access and natural resources.
