2017 Map of Petersburg B-6 NW

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal landscape on Kuiu Island, where the complex shoreline of Southeast Alaska meets the open water. This 2017 survey shows a region defined by its deep maritime indentations, most notably Alvin Bay and Reid Bay, which carve into the island's timbered interior. The map illustrates a wilderness largely devoid of human settlements, focusing instead on the dramatic elevation changes and the numerous small islets and rocks designated as TNF land that pepper the coast. To the north and east, the map transitions into the Gulf of Alaska and the Pacific Ocean, with Conclusion Island standing as a sentinel at the northeastern edge of the sheet. The cartography provides a detailed look at the island's drainage patterns and forested ridges before the sea takes over.
