About this map

Stephens Passage and Frederick Sound define this coastal maritime landscape, where the cold waters of Southeast Alaska meet a series of prominent islands. Large portions of the landmass, including East Brother Island, are protected within the Tongass National Forest, illustrating the remote and preserved nature of the Alexander Archipelago. The chart follows the administrative boundary between the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area and Petersburg Borough, which cuts through the open water east of Sail Island. Isolated landmarks such as The Five Fingers serve as critical navigation points for vessels transitioning between these major Alaskan waterways, reflecting a geography shaped by glaciation and an economy historically tied to the sea.
