About this map

Kuiu Island dominates this portion of the Alexander Archipelago, where the land meets the sea at the prominent Point Amelius. This modern survey reveals a landscape almost entirely contained within the Tongass National Forest, showcasing a rugged coastline defined by protected waters like Louise Cove. The map documents the intricate relationship between the coastal shelf and the interior heights, where numerous small islands, including Amelius Island, dot the shoreline. The absence of roads or established settlements underscores the primitive nature of this maritime wilderness, providing a clear record of the area's physical geography and nautical access points as they exist in the early twenty-first century.
