Chichagof Island, the second largest island in Southeast
Alaska, covers around 2,100 square miles from seaside estuaries
to alpine mountain peaks. It is home to a large population
of brown (Grizzly) bears, countless bald eagles; and five
species of salmon. It has over 200 miles of driveable roads,
most connected to Hoonah, the island's largest community at almost
900 inhabitants.
The roads were designed and built for timber harvest. Many
are still used for this purpose. They also provide access
for fishing, hunting, sightseeing, photography, picnicking,
and other outdoor activities.
