Tongass National Forest covers the entirety of this coastal Alaskan landscape, where the island terrain rises sharply from the sea. The topography is defined by significant elevations such as Mt Radamaker and Mt Race, which anchor the interior heights. Along the eastern shoreline, the intricate boundary between land and water is marked by Nelson Bay and the broad reach of the Gulf of Alaska and Chatham Strait. This 2017 survey illustrates a largely untouched wilderness characterized by alpine lakes and glacial-carved peaks. Freshwater systems are tucked high into the mountains, including Four Falls Lake in the north and the Wakefield Lakes cluster to the south. The map documents the specific administrative divide between the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area and Sitka Borough, providing a precise look at these remote jurisdictional boundaries.
