Kuiu Island within the Tongass National Forest presents a landscape defined by its deep coastal indentations and forest management routes. In this 2017 survey of the Petersburg Borough, the coastline is marked by the protected waters of Saginaw Bay to the northeast and Security Bay to the west, separated by the prominent Security Ridge. This map provides a detailed view of the modern forestry infrastructure, showing a network of named connector roads such as the Security Bay Connection and Kuiu Connection. Settlement is concentrated at Saginaw Camp, a site linked to the region's timber industry. Freshwater features like Coal Lake and Cool Lake sit high above the shoreline, while numerous drainages including Dean Creek and Saginaw Cr flow toward the coast. Landmarks like Expedition Point and Cedar Bight serve as navigational aids along the irregular Pacific shoreline.
