Prince of Wales Island meets the turbulent waters of the Dixon Entrance in this 1948 topographic study. The landscape is defined by its deep maritime indentations, most notably the long reach of Nichols Bay and the sheltered waters of Brownson Bay. Coastal landmarks such as Cape Chacon and Pt Nunez provide critical navigational references at the southern tip of the Alexander Archipelago.
