2018 Map of Seward C-4 SW

About this map

Prince William Sound dominates this coastal landscape within the Chugach National Forest, where the shoreline is deeply articulated by glacial inlets and narrow bays. The coastline is defined by dramatic geography, featuring the protective reach of Coxcomb Point and the sheltered waters of Shady Cove. To the west, Kings Bay provides a wide approach, while further east, the terrain is carved into distinct waterways including West Finger Inlet and East Finger Inlet. These deep marine penetrations into the forested land characterize the maritime environment of the Unorganized Borough. Further south, the map details the transition from open sound to more enclosed features like Greystone Bay and Deep Water Bay. This 2018 survey provides precise topographic detail of a region where the intersection of tide and timber defines the local geography, unmarred by roads or permanent settlements.
