Prince of Wales Island is depicted here during a period of infrastructure expansion within the Tongass National Forest. The City of Coffman Cove sits at the northern edge of this quadrangle, serving as a hub for the coastal and timber-related activity of the region. The map highlights a complex network of waterways and trails essential for navigating the Alaskan wilderness, including the Honker Divide Canoe Portage and the extensive reaches of the Thorne River. For those exploring the backcountry, the presence of the Sweetwater Lake Cabin (FS) and Honker Lake Cabin (FS) indicates the established forest service infrastructure used by hunters and travelers. The terrain is defined by prominent peaks such as Baird Pk and Manty Mountain, while the coastline along the Clarence Strait and Coffman Cove shows the maritime character of this remote landscape.
