Etolin Island and Wrangell Island dominate this coastal landscape, separated by the deep waters of Zimovia Strait. This late twentieth-century survey reveals a largely natural terrain within the Tongass National Forest, where high elevations like Bessie Peak and Helen Peak overlook a complex network of tidal flats and waterways. Human infrastructure is concentrated along the eastern shore, where the Zimovia Highway skirts the coast of Wrangell Island, passing near Pats Lake and crossing the Wrangell Corporate Boundary. On the Etolin side, the map documents the interior drainage of Kunk Lake feeding into Kunk Creek. These features illustrate the intersection of maritime navigation through Chichagof Pass and the early road development essential to this Alaskan panhandle community.
