About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal landscape where the maritime boundary separates Wrangell City and Borough from the Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area. The map focuses on two distinct shoreline reaches separated by open water, highlighting the intricate relationship between the land and the sea in Southeast Alaska. Ernest Point marks a prominent projection on the northern landmass, while Narrow Point defines a sharp turn in the coastline to the southwest. These points served as critical navigational landmarks for mariners and coastal inhabitants long before modern surveying. The interior of these landmasses is largely designated as part of the TNF, indicating a landscape maintained in its natural state, governed by the federal forest system and defined by the township and range grids of t69s r84e, t69s r85e, and t70s r84e.
