The remote settlement of Attu sits at the northern edge of this island landscape, overlooking the protected waters of Chichagof Harbor. This terrain is defined by its dramatic ridges and peaks, including Buffalo Head, West Peak, and Brewer Peak, which rise above valleys such as the Jim Fish Valley. The map details a complex coastline of bays and coves, from the broad Holtz Bay to the eastern shores of Hodikof Bay. Historically significant passes like Holtz Sarana Pass and the Japanese Gap suggest the strategic movement through the interior of the island between different coastal beachheads. Offshore, numerous hazards and landmarks are noted, including the Cooper Islands, Inner Rocks, and the Gibson Islands, illustrating the navigational challenges of the Bering Sea approaches.
