Nakat Inlet dominates this coastal survey, cutting deep into the coastal terrain of the Tongass National Forest. The waterway is flanked by dramatic elevation changes, with the high ground of Peninsula Ridge rising to the west and the heights of Shed Mtn to the east. This 2021 edition provides a detailed contemporary look at the uninhabited landscape within the Ketchikan Gateway Borough, where the tidal waters of the inlet meet the secluded Nakat Lake. The map illustrates the complex hydrography and steep contours of the Alexander Archipelago, showing a wilderness preserved without road access or modern development. This coastal corridor is primarily defined by its natural boundaries and federal forest designations, reflecting the enduring character of this remote Alaskan panhandle region.
