About this map

Chichagof Island serves as the foundation for this survey of the Alaskan coastline within the Tongass National Forest. The landscape is defined by the deep indentations of the sea, most notably Neka Bay which branches into North Bight and South Bight. The interior terrain is marked by a network of specialized roads and spurs that suggest localized resource management or maritime access points. Watercourses like the Neka River and Humpback Creek drain the upland slopes toward the coast, where Eight-Fathom Bight provides a sheltered harbor. The presence of named locations such as 8 Fathom Camp and specifically designated routes like Alder Avenue and the Sore Shoulder Spur indicate a working landscape managed under federal forest jurisdiction during this period.
