Tongass National Forest land defines the small, rugged landmasses shown here at the southern reaches of the Alexander Archipelago. Coastal features such as Cape Northumberland and Kelp Island mark the boundary where the islands meet the open waters of Dixon Entrance. The map highlights several smaller geographic features, including Sister Islands, East Island, and the isolated Yellow Rocks to the south. This coastal landscape is shaped by its maritime orientation, featuring the Kelp Island Anchorage which serves as a notable point of shelter for vessels navigating the Pacific Ocean approach. The absence of roads or settlements emphasizes the remote, undeveloped character of these southernmost Alaskan islands.
