About this map

Chugach National Forest encompasses this coastal Alaskan landscape where the waters of Prince William Sound meet the Gulf of Alaska. The terrain is defined by dramatic coastal inlets and elevations, including Dual Head and Claw Peak, which rise steeply from the shoreline. Navigational features are prominent, including a designated Ferry Route that traverses the lower portion of the map near Bainbridge Passage. The coastline is heavily indented with sheltered waters such as Whale Bay, Humpback Cove, and Eleshansky Cove. These natural harbors and small drainages like Frenchy Creek reflect the maritime character of the region. While the interior remains largely roadless, the maritime corridors and named coves like Otter Cove suggest the area's importance for transit and seasonal activity within the national forest system.
