USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Chichagof Island is the centerpiece of this mid-century survey, showcasing the deep-water passage of Tenakee Inlet as it carves through the landscape. The map details the intricate coastline of the Tongass National Forest, where steep terrain meets significant water bodies like Long Bay and Seal Bay. A lone Cabin near Salt Lake Bay stands as a rare sign of human habitation in a landscape defined by tidal flats and narrow channels.
