The village of Kake on Kupreanof Island serves as the central hub of this 2017 topographic survey. Situated within the Tongass National Forest, the region is defined by its intricate network of waterways, including the Keku Strait, Portage Bay, and Hamilton Bay. This map documents the coastal infrastructure near the community, featuring the Kake Airport and the Kake Seaplane Base. Inland, the landscape is crisscrossed by several drainages such as Gunnuk Cr, Little Gunnuk Cr, and Slo Duc Cr. Maritime history and local geography are highlighted by the presence of Grave Island, while the Keku Islands, Kousk Island, and Hound Island dot the surrounding waters of the Gulf of Alaska.
