2021 Map of Port Alexander D-2 NW
USGS Topo · Published 2021About this map
Chatham Strait dominates this maritime expanse, where the deep waters of the Alexander Archipelago meet the administrative boundaries of Southeast Alaska. The map centers on the isolated Yasha Island, a small landmass within the Tongass National Forest that serves as a critical navigation marker for vessels moving through the strait. This 2021 study meticulously delineates the convergence of three major jurisdictions: the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area Sitka City and Borough, the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area, and the southern reaches of the Tongass National Forest. The absence of developed roads or settlements emphasizes the remote, water-dependent nature of this region, which remains primarily a corridor for maritime traffic and wilderness management.
