- Description
- Photograph of Hawk Inlet and Admiralty Island, taken from a ship sailing through an adjacent channel. The image appears to tilt downward towards the right. A ship (partial view) occupies the lower left corner of the image. The camera faces towards the ship's bow. Rigging stretches vertically from the deck's rail. Passengers and cargo are visible on the deck. To the right of the ship, a channel extends across the image and into the distance. A settlement is visible on the distant shore at center. Tree-covered hills rise from shorelines in the distance.
