Cape Muzon defines the southern tip of Dall Island, marking a significant landform within the Alexander Archipelago at the edge of the Gulf of Alaska. This portion of the Tongass National Forest is characterized by a deeply indented coastline where the sea reaches into the land via McLeod Bay, Liscome Bay, and Wolk Harbor. These natural harbors and sheltered bights like Chickwan Bight have historically provided refuge in the often-turbulent waters of the Pacific Ocean. The map reveals a landscape dominated by steep coastal topography and intricate island groups, including the Datzkoo Islands and Daykoo Islands tucked near the Kaigani Strait. This 2017 survey documents the precise shoreline and elevations of this remote wilderness area within the Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area.
