Prince William Sound dominates this coastal survey, where the deep waters of Port Gravina and Saint Matthews Bay meet the steep rise of the Chugach Mountains. Situated within the Chugach National Forest, the landscape is defined by its dramatic maritime geography, showing the intricate shoreline and surrounding tidal features of the Alaska coast. On the western side of the sound, the curiously named Hells Hole provides a distinctive landmark along the coast, while to the southeast, the northern tip of Gravina Island and the nearby Gravina Rocks emerge from the water. This 2018 data illustrates the intersection of vast public lands and protected waterways in the Unorganized Borough, focusing on the natural contours of the land rather than human settlement, preserving the character of the Alaskan wilderness.
