Prince of Wales Island and Kosciusko Island anchor this coastal survey, where the intricate waterways of Shakan Bay and Davidson Inlet meet the Sumner Strait. The map reveals a landscape defined by maritime navigation and extractive history, most notably at the Shakan Light Station Island Lighthouse Reserve and the former settlement at Calder. A nearby quarry and log transfer facilities suggest the mid-1990s industrial footprint within the Tongass National Forest. Inland, the topography rises sharply to summits like Mount Calder and the twin peaks of The Nipples. On the eastern edge, El Capitan Lake sits tucked behind Dry Pass, while the southern reaches are dominated by the Mt Holbrook LUD II Management Area, centered on the peaks of Holbrook Mountain and the former Holbrook site.
