Wrangell Narrows serves as the central maritime artery of this coastal landscape, separating the Lindenberg Peninsula on Kupreanof Island from the shores of Mitkof Island. This 1990s-era topographical study highlights the navigational complexity of the waterway, dotted with features like Vexation Point, California Boulder Patch, and Halfmoon Anchorage. Coastal infrastructure is clustered primarily along the Mitkof Highway, including Papkes Landing and a nearby Fish Ladder. The map also documents the inland reach of the Tongass National Forest, showing the proximity of the Petersburg Corporate Boundary to the north. Historical sites such as Tonka (Site) and resource extraction points like the Quarry and Gravel Pit reflect the region's industrial footprint within the tidal flats and wooded gulches of the Alexander Archipelago.
