Hoonah sits at the northern edge of Chichagof Island, oriented toward the waters of Port Frederick. This portion of the Tongass National Forest showcases a landscape defined by timber and coastal transport, with the Whitestone Logging Camp located south of the main settlement. The geography is punctuated by numerous maritime landmarks, including Grave Point, Harbor Point, and Pitt Island, which together form the approach to the town's harbor. Inland, the map reveals the logistical infrastructure of the region, from the Hoonah Airport to specialized routes like Hoonah Gypsum and Game Creek. This survey captures the spatial relationship between the Tlingit community and the surrounding wilderness, where drainages like Gartina Cr cut through the dense forest toward the shoreline.
