Prince of Wales Island within the southern reaches of the Alexander Archipelago is the primary focus of this 2018 topographic study. Much of the land shown belongs to the Tongass National Forest, illustrating the coastal wilderness characteristic of the Unorganized Borough in Alaska. The intricate coastline is defined by significant waterways such as Kendrick Bay and Gardner Bay. These inlets, along with McLean Arm, provide shelter for marine traffic navigating the winding shoreline. Specific geographical markers like Island Point and McLean Point offer precise navigation points along the jagged edges of the island. Public Land Survey System markers T81s R90e and T82s R90e denote the legal divisions across this largely uninhabited terrain.
