USGS Topo · Published 1988About this map
The Heney Range rises sharply above the intricate coastline of eastern Prince William Sound, marking a rugged transition to the Gulf of Alaska. This 1951 survey, revised through the late 1980s, documents the vital maritime and aviation infrastructure of the era, including a landing strip on Hinchinbrook Island and the radio towers at Boswell Bay. The map highlights the interplay of tide and terrain across Orca Inlet and the Strawberry Channel, where features like Mummy I and Seal Rocks punctuate the shifting waters.
