Coastal spruce and hemlock rise from sea level to alpine plant communities above 2,000 feet. Black bears, wolves, and smaller furbearing animals are common in the interior, and marine mammals are often seen from shore. Trout and salmon fill the streams, and fishing vessels come for Dungeness and Tanner crabs, shrimp, herring, and halibut in the waters offshore. Once this area was occupied by Tlingit Indians and signs of their use still may be seen. Beware of swift tidal currents when approaching by boat.
Rain keeps the area wet year-round.
You'll find no trails or facilities of any kind, but camping is unrestricted and human visitors are few.
