2017 Map of Petersburg B-5 SE
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Tongass National Forest covers the majority of this landscape on Prince of Wales Island, reaching the southern shoreline of the Gulf of Alaska. The coastal geography is defined by deep inlets like Buster Bay and the passage of Summer Strait to the west. Inland, the terrain is marked by significant elevations such as Buster Ridge and an intricate network of waterways including Alder Creek, Strait Creek, and Big Creek. A system of forest roads and loops, including the N Prince of Wales Road and Duck Creek Loop, provides the primary access through this heavily wooded and mountainous island interior. The map illustrates a modern era of forest management and maritime connection in the Alexander Archipelago.
