About this map

Tongass National Forest encompasses this coastal Alaskan landscape, where the waters of Hoonah Sound and Peril Strait meet between major islands. The map highlights the maritime geography of the early 1950s, detailing a labyrinth of passages such as Deadman Reach and sheltered spots like Favorite Anchorage. On the northern shore of Baranof Island, the survey identifies scattered Cabins, suggesting small-scale human presence amidst the dense forest and high peaks of Chichagof Island.
