2017 Map of Port Alexander D-1 NE
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Frederick Sound and the Keku Strait meet in this maritime environment of the Alexander Archipelago. The terrain is dominated by the intricate network of the Keku Islets and the larger Keku Islands cluster, showcasing the complex tidal geography characteristic of the region. Much of the land area, including the prominent Payne Island, is part of the Tongass National Forest, indicating a landscape managed for its natural resources and conservation. To the southwest, the coastal indentation of Saginaw Bay provides a protected waterway behind the fragmented shoreline. This survey captures the relationship between the deep waters of the sound and the shallow, island-studded straits that have long influenced navigation and fishing in this corner of Alaska.
