About this map

Kake and its neighboring cannery sit along the shoreline of Keku Strait, serving as a focal point for the maritime activity that defined this portion of the Tongass National Forest in the late 1940s. The intricate waterway system of Hamilton Bay and Rocky Pass separates the landmasses of Kuiu Island and Kupreanof Island, where numerous cabins and landmarks like McNaughton Pt mark the limited human footprint in this coastal environment.
