The coastal waters of Nichols Passage dominate this maritime survey, illustrating the complex geography of the Alexander Archipelago. Near the boundary between the Ketchikan Gateway Borough and Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area, the landscape is defined by small landmasses and submerged hazards. Significant portions of the territory are designated as protected lands, including the Annette Island Reserve and sections of the Tongass National Forest. Navigational landmarks such as Point McCartey and the Bronaugh Islands serve as critical points for local seafaring and transit through these northern channels. Marine features like Grouse Rock and Hid Reef further emphasize the nautical character of the region, where the intersection of federal forest land and indigenous reservation land meets the open sea.
