About this map

Glacier Bay National Park dominates this coastal Alaska landscape, where tidal waters meet high elevation terrain. This 2017 survey documents the intricate shoreline and steep topography of the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area, characterized by deep-water inlets and isolated mountain peaks. Notable landmarks include the prominent Black Cap Mtn, which rises above the northern interior, and the secluded Vivid Lake situated near the western coast.

The coastal geography is defined by a complex network of waterways, from the broad expanse of Glacier Bay to more sheltered features like Blue Mouse Cove and Hugh Miller Inlet. The eastern portion of the map is marked by Tidal Inlet, illustrating the dynamic maritime environment of Southeast Alaska. This map provides a precise look at the wilderness character and hydrological patterns of the region as they appeared in the early 21st century.
