2021 Map of Sitka A-5 NE

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal Alaska landscape, where the waters of Nakwasina Sound and Olga Strait carve out a complex network of islands and peninsulas north of Sitka. The geography is defined by significant landmasses like Halleck Island and the Lisianski Peninsula, separated by deep inlets such as Katlian Bay and Cedar Cove. To the south, the landscape transitions from the heights of Krestof Mtn toward the more accessible shoreline of Starrigavan Bay. Development is concentrated along the southern coast, where Halibut Point Road provides access to recreational paths like the Mosquito Cove Trl. This area illustrates the late twentieth and early twenty-first-century balance between industrial resource management, represented by the Nelson Logging Road, and the protected wilderness of the national forest system.
