About this map

Boca De Quadra dominates this mid-century coastal survey, carving a deep waterway through the heart of the Tongass National Forest. The geography is defined by a series of dramatic inlets and fingers of water, including Badger Bay and the elongated Vixen Bay, which are separated by prominent landforms like Peninsula Ridge. Inland, the landscape is punctuated by numerous freshwater bodies such as Hugh Smith Lake and Bakewell Lake, indicating a wilderness area defined by its complex drainage patterns and proximity to the Behm Canal.
