About this map

Tongass National Forest defines the wilderness character of this coastal Alaskan landscape, where the Chichagof Island interior meets the Gulf of Alaska. The drainage of Pavlof Lake and the Pavlof River serves as a central hydrological feature, flowing toward the protected waters of Pavlof Harbor. Along the southern coastline, a lone Cannery at Cannery Point points to the region's enduring maritime industrial ties. The terrain is marked by significant elevations like Mt Parish and distinctive geological formations including a Hanging Valley and Pavlof Ridge. Navigational landmarks such as Pinnacle Rock, Cedar Island, and Little Cedar Island dot the intricate shoreline, which is deeply indented by Waschussetts Cove and Coffee Cove. Rare overland access is indicated by the Inlet Road and the No 2 Creek Trl, providing routes through the dense forest and across numerous waterways like Harley Cr and No 1 Creek.
