About this map

Port Beauclerc defines the coastal geography of this island landscape, where deep inlets and protected waterways are sheltered by timbered terrain. Most of the land falls within the Tongass National Forest, illustrating a preserved wilderness of the Alexander Archipelago. Prominent landmarks such as Edwards Island and the isolated Beauclerc Island to the southeast punctuate the maritime approaches. Inland, the topography rises sharply toward Beauclerc Peak, which serves as a significant high point for navigators and surveyors. This map captures the intersection of coastal marine environments and the high-elevation slopes of the southern Alaskan islands, showing a landscape defined by its glacial carving and dense maritime forest cover.
