1951 Map of Sitka A-4

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Sitka serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, situated where the Sitka Highway meets the intricate waterways of the Alexander Archipelago. The landscape is defined by the steep transition from the glacial peaks of Baranof Island, including Mt Katlian and The Sisters, down to the sheltered waters of Katlian Bay and Silver Bay. The mapping of small islands such as Kutkan I, Katz I, and Emgeten Island reflects a maritime-dependent community where the Eastern Channel provided the primary means of transport and trade.
