About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal landscape, where the Alexander Archipelago fragments into a complex network of islands and deep-water inlets. Based on topography from 1948 and updated with imagery through the early 1990s, the map reveals the rugged maritime geography of Suemez Island, Dall Island, and a portion of Prince of Wales Island. Coastal features like Sea Otter Harbor and the long reach of Manhattan Arm illustrate the intricate shoreline that has long supported Alaskan maritime activities.

Industrial and resource-based land use is evident near View Cove, which serves as a hub for local operations including a Logging Camp and a Limestone Quarry. Inland, the terrain is marked by prominent peaks such as White Mtn and Bear Mtn, while interior water bodies like Manhattan Lake and Devil Lake sit tucked between steep ridges, highlighting the isolation and topographical variety of this remote region.
