The Tongass National Forest dominates the terrestrial landscape of this maritime map, covering the northern and southern coastlines that border Frederick Sound. To the south, the Bohemian Range rises above the shoreline, providing a dramatic backdrop to coastal features like Goose Cove. This survey documents the boundary between Petersburg Borough and the Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area, which cuts diagonally across the open water. Navigational points and landmarks such as West Point and the Portage Islands provide essential orientation in this primarily aquatic environment, where the geography is defined by the reaching arms of the sea and the protected timberlands of the national forest.
