2017 Map of Mount Fairweather A-2 SW

About this map

Yakobi Island dominates this coastal landscape where the Gulf of Alaska meets the intricate shorelines of the Tongass National Forest. The map documents a complex maritime interface, characterized by deep inlets like Hoktaheen Cove and Bingham Cove that reach into the interior. Elevation rises sharply from the Pacific to landmarks such as Bingham Peak, while freshwater features like Hoktaheen Lake and Surge Lake sit tucked behind the rocky littoral. The presence of the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area boundary cutting through the open waters of the Pacific Ocean illustrates the administrative divisions of this coastal wilderness. The lack of roads or settlements underscores the preservation of this area as part of the national forest system, where drainage patterns like Hoktaheen Cr define the movement of water from the peaks to the sea.
