The waters of Clarence Strait and the Pacific Ocean dominate this maritime survey, illustrating the complex shoreline of southeast Alaska. At the heart of the map lies Grindall Island, separated from the mainland by the narrow Grindall Passage. These landmasses form part of the Tongass National Forest, showing a landscape defined by coastal points such as Grindall Point and Approach Point. Smaller islands, including Streets Island and High Island, appear as navigational landmarks within this remote archipelago. The map also delineates the administrative boundary between the Ketchikan Gateway Borough and the Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area, cutting diagonally across the open water. This 2017 edition records the essential topography and hydrography used for navigating the passage during the early twenty-first century.
