Gravina Island and the western reaches of Ketchikan define this coastal landscape within the Tongass National Forest. The map documents the critical infrastructure of the Alexander Archipelago, notably the Ketchikan International Airport separated from the main town by the water. Along the shoreline, established points like Charcoal Point, Bar Point, and East Clump mark the maritime approach to the city. To the west, the interior of the island is dominated by high peaks including Irvin Thompson Mtn and High Mtn, while the Vallenar Valley cuts through the northern terrain. This survey captures a modern era of development where logging roads and thoroughfares like Gravina Island Highway and South Tongass support the regional economy and the University of Alaska Southeast Ketchikan Campus.
