Lucy, I don't know if you are aware of this resource but National Geographic puts out special maps of PWS and Kenai Fjords. The maps are based on topo maps (scale 1: 105,600) and contains such useful information as "Kayak Landing Beach" and trails. I found them to be a great resource for trip planning. The maps are also waterproof and tear resistant. the titles are National Geographic Maps, Trails Illustrated series, Prince William Sound - West (761) , Prince William Sound - East (?) and Kenai Fjords National Park (231). The web site listed is www.nationalgeographic.com I got my copies($9.95) at R.E.I. Hope this helps.

Lucy, o by the way there was a 4.8 magnitude earthquake in the middle of Prince William Sound yesterday and researchers predict more 5s in the future. Happy paddling.
