2021 Map of Atka D-1 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Conical Volcano dominates the northern interior of this portion of Atka Island, standing above a landscape of steep glacial valleys and complex coastal inlets. This coastal reach of the Aleutians West Census Area is defined by deep bays like Korovin Bay and Kangixtax, where the land meets the Bering Sea. The map preserves a rich layer of indigenous toponymy, marking landmarks such as Tagalam Angtaa, Qaluugix Tiglix, and Ugilga. These names reflect the historical and cultural significance of the island's geography to the Unangam Tunuu speakers of the region. The interplay of high volcanic peaks like Tunmsax and intricate waterways like Sitxaxsix illustrates the challenging environment of the central Aleutians, where traditional maritime knowledge is essential for navigating the complex shoreline.
