Prince William Sound dominates this coastal survey, where the deep maritime waters meet the small, isolated landmasses of the Chugach National Forest. The map centers on the open waters of the sound, punctuated by the distinct profiles of Smith Island and the smaller Little Smith Island in the southeastern quadrant. These islands, along with several unnamed coastal points to the west, are protected as part of the CNF, illustrating the wilderness character of the region. The landscape is defined by its lack of human infrastructure, focusing instead on the complex shoreline and the bathymetry of the sound. This 2023 edition provides a baseline for tracking the geomorphology of these remote islands within the North Pacific ecosystem.
