Bradfield Canal is an inlet in Southeast Alaska, United States. It extends 30 kilometres (19 mi) west from the mouth of the Bradfield River to Ernest Sound at Point Warde.[1] It was first charted in 1793 by James Johnstone, one of George Vancouver's officers during his 1791–95 expedition. Vancouver later named it "Bradfield Channel".[2]
