Prince of Wales<br />

West of <strong>Ketchikan</strong> lies the third<br />

largest island in the United<br />

States. Prince of Wales is home to<br />

3,700 residents in a dozen communities<br />

ranging in size from 50<br />

to 1500. Prince of Wales provides<br />

outstanding recreation opportunities<br />

including camping, hunting<br />

and hiking. It is also a prime<br />

destination for sportfishing<br />

enthusiasts.<br />

• El Capitan and Cavern Lake caves<br />

are managed by the U.S. Forest<br />

Service, and are examples of the<br />

massive cave and karst system<br />

present in SE Alaska.<br />

• Examples of Native Alaskan culture<br />

and totem pole collections can be<br />

viewed in several Prince of Wales<br />

communities.<br />

• Daily transportation between<br />

<strong>Ketchikan</strong> and Prince of Wales is<br />

provided by the Inter Island ferry<br />

service, operating between Hollis<br />

and <strong>Ketchikan</strong>. In 2006, the IFA<br />

plans to begin service between<br />

Coffman Cove and the Wrangell-<br />

Petersburg area.<br />

• Local commuter air carriers connect<br />

<strong>Ketchikan</strong> to the island with scheduled<br />

daily service.<br />
