1994 Map of Petersburg A-4

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Prince of Wales Island and the dense forest lands of the Tongass National Forest dominate this maritime landscape during the late twentieth century. The map highlights a region defined by complex waterways and timber management, featuring specialized infrastructure like the Log Transfer Facility and the El Capitan Work Center. Fringed by the Clarence Strait and Whale Passage, the terrain is marked by distinctive geological features including Cavern Lake and the karst-inflected Sink Hole Lake. Human presence is largely oriented around the water, evidenced by Camp Taylor (Site) on Sarheen Cove and various cabins near Whale Pass. This survey illustrates the intricate balance between industrial timber access and the preservation of areas like the Land Use Development II Management Area and the Mt Calder / Mt Holbrook Land Use Development II Management Area.
