Deweyville (Aban'd) stands as a reminder of the shifting timber and fishing settlements on Prince of Wales Island during the late twentieth century. Located within the Tongass National Forest, this map details the complex network of waterways including El Capitan Passage and Tuxekan Passage, which historically served as the primary transit routes before the expansion of logging roads. The landscape is dotted with active and historical sites of human activity, from the Naukati Bunkhouse (FS) and several Log Transfer Facilities to the Lighthouse Reserve and isolated Forest Service shelters like the Sarkar Lake Cabin (FS). Significant natural features such as Silver Salmon Falls and Horseshoe Hole reflect the region's rich aquatic environment, while the Staley Creek Bridge and portions of the Coffman Cove Road show the encroaching land-based infrastructure of the 1990s.
