Salty runs by the cliffs on the northside of Gut Bay. The Tlingits call this Raven's gillnet.

The Tlingit legend says a family was saved at the time of the Great Flood by tying their boat around the top of Devil's Thumb near Petersburg. When the flood receeded their rope was petrified around the top. One can see the crack of it. How did the Tligits know there was a ring around it for few people have scaled it to this day.
