Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal landscape along the western edge of Baranof Island, showing a wilderness of intricate waterways and unnamed peaks. The terrain is defined by deep fjords like Crawfish Inlet and Whale Bay, where the Pacific Ocean meets a fractured coastline of points and capes. Marine navigation is the primary focus, with the Middle Channel and Walker Channel threading through the Rakof Islands. Small, protected anchorages like Toy Harbor and Still Harbor offer refuge along the steep slopes of the South Baranof Wilderness. The map illustrates the specialized topography of Southeast Alaska, where land and water are inextricably linked, showing no roads or established trails, only the natural features of the City and Borough of Sitka's wild maritime border.
