About this map

Port Snettisham defines the maritime geography of this coastal area, where the deep waters of Speel Arm reach into a landscape of high glaciated peaks. The map reveals the early industrial and surveying footprint within the Tongass National Forest, particularly around the mouth of Prospect Creek. Evidence of resource extraction is visible at the Whigg Placer Mine near the southern coast and an unnamed Mine situated along the shoreline of Mallard Cove.
