The vast waters of the Gulf of Alaska dominate this maritime survey, illustrating the isolated coastal reaches of the Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area. Landmass is confined to the southwestern portion of the sheet, where Tongass National Forest acreage is marked by the presence of Wolf Rock. The map reflects the extreme coastal character of Southeast Alaska, focusing on the interface between the open ocean and the rugged island landscape. Without roads or settlements, the topography serves primarily as a navigational record for the waters and the few prominent land features that emerge from the sea, providing a precise spatial accounting of these protected federal lands and the neighboring marine environment.
