2017 Map of Port Alexander C-1 NE

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal portion of Alexander Archipelago, where the landscape is defined by the steep elevation changes and dense drainage networks typical of southeastern Alaska. The map centers on the upper reaches of Kadake Creek, which flows through a complex system of marshlands and small bodies of water like Beaver Pond. At the southern edge, the terrain meets the Gulf of Alaska, revealing a jagged shoreline. Significant for transportation history in this wilderness, the Bay of Pillars-Portage Trail and the Kuiu Mainline provide terrestrial routes through the dense forest, likely serving logging or resource management interests. Named peaks such as Hobnail stand as prominent landmarks amidst the numerous unnamed ridges and valleys that characterize this maritime environment in 2017.
