Prince of Wales Island and the neighboring Kasaan Peninsula dominate this coastal survey, where the intricate shoreline of Southeast Alaska meets the Pacific Ocean. This maritime landscape is defined by the massive Tongass National Forest, which covers the rugged islands and mainland peninsulas shown. Navigation through these waters involves threading the needle between several landforms, including Kasaan Island, Daisy Island, and the outcrop of Black Rock. To the south, the deep inlet of Skowl Arm carves into the island, sheltered by Skowl Island and Skowl Point. The map also captures smaller, isolated landmasses such as Patterson Island and High Island, alongside geographic markers like Giants Head and Saltery Cove. This 2017 edition document provides a clear view of the natural topography and protected federal lands as they appeared in the early 21st century.
