The Glass Peninsula dominates this coastal landscape, stretching between the waters of the Seymour Canal and the open Gulf of Alaska. Most of the terrain is protected as part of the Tongass National Forest, characterized by dense hydrographic networks and significant elevation changes near the Coast Mountains. The map reveals a intricate coastline defined by narrow waterways and sheltered anchorages, such as Oliver Inlet and Doty Cove. These features reflect the typical maritime topography of the Alaska Panhandle, where the land is fragmented by tidal inlets and coves like Swan Cove. This 2017 survey provides a precise look at the modern shoreline and forest boundaries, illustrating the intersection of the Admiralty Island area's wilderness and its marine surroundings.
