About this map

Prince of Wales Island and Kosciusko Island dominate this coastal survey, where the intricate waterways of Southeast Alaska reveal a history of maritime commerce and resource extraction. The map details the site of Shakan, once a significant cannery and sawmill hub, along with a Quarry near Calder. These coastal outposts were linked by the complex passages of Shakan Strait and El Capitan Passage, serving as vital corridors for timber and fishing fleets.
