Kupreanof Island defines the heart of this coastal wilderness within the Tongass National Forest. The landscape is dominated by high-elevation terrain and dense forest, where drainage systems like Taylor Cr and the northern Towers Lake carve through the island's interior. This 2017 survey reflects a largely untouched environment where modern administrative lines meet ancient geography. The map documents the border between the Petersburg Borough and the Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area, showing how these political boundaries follow the natural topography of the island. For researchers or outdoorsmen, the sheet provides exact coordinates for the township and range grids, including t58s r76e and t59s r76e, which organize this vast Alaskan temperate rainforest.
