2024 Map of Sitka A-2 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2024

About this map

Admiralty Island dominates this southern reach of the Alexander Archipelago, where the jagged coastline meets the open waters of the Gulf of Alaska and Chatham Strait. The terrain is almost entirely encompassed by the Kootznoowoo Wilderness and the Admiralty Island National Monument, preserving a landscape of steep timbered slopes within the Tongass National Forest. Notable coastal landforms include the sharp protrusion of Point Gardner and the sheltered waters of Surprise Harbor and Murder Cove. The lack of road infrastructure and human settlements on this sheet reflects the area's protected status and its reliance on maritime navigation. Land surveyors and maritime researchers can trace the precise points of Walker Point and Bartlett Point, which define the small bays and inlets along the island's southern tip.
