2017 Map of Craig A-4 SW

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates the coastal topography of this 2017 survey, where the maritime landscape of the Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area meets the Pacific. The coastline is defined by dramatic elevations and deep water inlets, most notably Sea Otter Harbor and Sakie Bay. High peaks such as Bear Mtn, Cone Mtn, and Thunder Mtn rise sharply from the shoreline, creating a complex terrain of ridges and points including Bruin Point and Cape Lookout. Numerous islands like Gate Island, Middle Island, and Nellag Island are scattered throughout the harbors, offering a detailed view of the navigational hazards and natural landmarks of the Alexander Archipelago. The inclusion of Manhattan Arm Sea Otter Harbor and Francis Point provides precise geographic data for maritime researchers and those studying the wilderness of Southeast Alaska.
