2021 Map of Port Alexander D-4 NW

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal landscape on Baranof Island, where the sea meets the steep, glacial topography of the Alexander Archipelago. Deep saltwater incisions like Deep Inlet and Aleutkina Bay provide protected waters, while the interior is defined by sharp peaks such as The Pyramids and Mt Dranishnikof. The presence of Redoubt Lake and the Dranishnikov River indicates a complex hydrological system where freshwater drainages cut through the mountains to reach the Pacific. This terrain, characterized by narrow valleys and high ridges like Eureka Mtn, suggests a region where movement was traditionally dictated by water routes and shoreline topography. The detailed drainage patterns of Kizhuchia Creek and its various spurs offer insight into the natural corridors used by wildlife and early explorers through the dense coastal forest.
