About this map

Goat Island and a dense archipelago of named landforms dominate this coastal portion of the Tongass National Forest. The intricate shoreline is defined by the South Pass Sukkwan Strait and the constricted Sukkwan Narrows, which separate numerous islands and islets. Navigation and local geography are recorded through descriptive names such as Crab Trap Cove, Fishhook Island, and Whisker Point. To the north, Soda Bay and Natzuhini Bay carve into the heavily indented coast, while features like Deadman Island and Spook Island suggest a long history of maritime activity and local lore. This modern survey provides a precise look at the complex interface of land and water in Southeast Alaska, documenting the position of markers like Turn Rock and The Sentinels within the vast national forest boundary.
