Clarence Strait dominates this 2021 survey of Southeast Alaska's intricate coastline. The map details the eastern shoreline of Prince of Wales Island, where the island's steep, forested slopes descend directly into the deep waters of the strait. Within the protected confines of Grant Cove, the topography reveals the transition from tidal zones to the dense interior of the Tongass National Forest. The map also delineates the administrative boundary between the Ketchikan Gateway Borough and the Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area, which runs through the center of the waterway. This modern topographic study provides an essential look at the remote wilderness of the Alexander Archipelago, where maritime navigation and forest management define the landscape.
