2018 Map of Ketchikan B-3 SE

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal landscape, where steep maritime topography meets the intricate waterways of the Alexander Archipelago. The map reveals the dramatic intersection of land and sea at Smeaton Bay, a deep glacial fjord that cuts through the wilderness. These waters belong to the Pacific Ocean, reaching inland via narrow passages like Wilson Arm and Bakewell Arm. The drainage patterns of the coastal range are defined by several watercourses, including Winstanley Cr and Bartholomew Cr, which feed into the sound. At the southeastern edge, the transition from saltwater to freshwater is marked by Bakewell Lake, reflecting the remote and undeveloped nature of the Ketchikan Gateway region as documented in this 2018 survey.
