2017 Map of Petersburg C-5 NW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Kupreanof Island defines the heart of this coastal wilderness within the Tongass National Forest. The landscape is dominated by a complex network of waterways, most notably the Keku Strait which separates the island from nearby landmasses. Moving inland from the salt water, the terrain rises into densely forested ridges fed by drainages like Keku Creek and Irish Cr. This survey captures the interior water systems of the island, including the clustered Irish Lakes and the southern flow of Tunehean Cr. The map illustrates the administrative division between Petersburg Borough and the Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area, revealing how these remote Alaskan boundaries follow the high ridges and natural watersheds of the Alexander Archipelago.
