About this map

Prince of Wales Island dominates this maritime landscape along the western reaches of the Tongass National Forest. The map documents a heavily indented coastline where the Gulf of Alaska meets protected waterways like Klakas Inlet and Klakwan Cove. These natural harbors and shoreline features define the region's historical character, characterized by maritime navigation and the timber resources of the surrounding forest. Notable landmarks such as Shipwreck Point, Grave Point, and Davidson Point provide essential orientation for the area's intricate network of islands, including Kassa Island and Klakas Island. The placement of Ruth Island within Ruth Bay further illustrates the complex coastal geography that has long influenced transportation and settlement patterns in this remote corner of Southeast Alaska.
