2021 Map of Dixon Entrance D-1 NW

About this map

Prince of Wales Island presents a landscape of deep fjords and steep peaks, defined by the intricate waterways of the Tongass National Forest. The geography is dominated by the complex reach of West Arm Moira Sound and South Arm Moira Sound, which cut deep into the timbered interior. Along the northern coast, Frederick Cove provides a sheltered harbor below rising elevations. This 2021 survey reveals a remote wilderness where land and sea are inextricably linked, particularly evident at Biscuit Lagoon and the narrow passage of The Saitchuck. Topographical landmarks like Bokan Mtn and Biscuit Knob rise sharply above the coastline, serving as fixed points for navigators and foresters in this roadless maritime environment. Small drainages like Perkins Cr drain the high country, illustrating the rugged hydrologic patterns of the Alexander Archipelago.
