About this map

The coastal wilderness of the Tongass National Forest dominates this landscape on Prince of Wales Island, where the deep inlets and protected coves of the Gulf of Alaska define the shoreline. The geography is marked by significant topographical landmarks such as Bokan Mtn, rising above the intricate network of waterways. Water remains the primary feature of this terrain, characterized by the expansive Kendrick Bay and its West Arm Kendrick Bay, which provide natural harbors shielded by the Kendrick Islands. Moving inland, the map reveals the drainage patterns of the temperate rainforest, including Hessa Lake, Johnson Lake, and the winding path of Perkins Cr. These features illustrate the complex intersection of mountainous island terrain and the North Pacific's jagged coastline, preserved within one of the nation's largest forest reserves.
