2021 Map of Sitka A-5 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal landscape along the western edge of Sitka Sound, where the temperate rainforest meets the open Gulf Of Alaska. The map detail follows a rugged shoreline defined by prominent landmarks such as Mountain Point, Inner Point, and Shoals Point. A primary corridor for exploration is the Mt Edgecumbe Trl, which winds through the dense forest and across numerous townships. Off the coast, the marine environment is punctuated by small landforms including Low Island and the Vitskari Rocks, serving as critical navigation points for those traversing the waters of the Alexander Archipelago. The presence of Freds Cr and various unnamed drainages highlights the intricate hydrology typical of this maritime region. This survey serves as a modern baseline for understanding the land-sea interface in one of America's largest national forests.
