Tanaga Volcano dominates the southern reaches of this Aleutian island landscape, its steep contours rising sharply from the coast. To the north, the shoreline meets the Bering Sea, characterized by the prominent projection of Falls Point. The map illustrates the extreme northern topography of this portion of the Aleutian Islands, where the land is defined by volcanic features rather than human settlements. Surveyed by the U.S. Geological Survey, this 2021 edition provides a precise view of the volcanic terrain and maritime boundary lines of the Aleutians West Census Area, showing the stark intersection of high elevation and the sea.
