About this map

Duke Island, a prominent landmass within the Alexander Archipelago, dominates this landscape of the Tongass National Forest in southeastern Alaska. The coastline is deeply indented with maritime landmarks such as Morse Cove, Ray Anchorage, and Judd Harbor, indicating the critical importance of sheltered waters for navigation and local subsistence. Rising above the southern terrain is Duke Hill, a high point that serves as a terrestrial counterpart to the low-lying Flag Point and Duke Point on the eastern shore. To the northwest, Dog Island sits across Pond Bay, illustrating the complex network of islands and channels that define the region's geography. This survey provides a clear view of the natural harborages and elevations that have long served as navigational aids for travelers moving through the Pacific Ocean.
