Tongass National Forest encloses this heavily forested region of Prince of Wales Island, where the landscape is defined by rugged topography and complex hydrological networks. The interior is marked by significant elevations like El Capitan Peak and unique geological features including a Sink Hole and the Cavern Hills near Cavern Lake. Water dominates the eastern and southern edges, from the expansive Salmon Bay Lake to the tidal reaches at Cape Pole and Aneskett Point. Access across the island is facilitated by the North Prince of Wales Road and an intricate system of forest tracks such as 20008789 Road Trl and the 2720000 Rd Cavern Lake Trl, which navigate between prominent landmarks like Bowl Face and Double 1000 Knobs.
