1997 Map of Sitka B-3

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

Chichagof Island, Catherine Island, and the northern edge of Baranof Island converge in this coastal survey within the Tongass National Forest. The map documents the intricate waterways and maritime navigation markers necessary for travel through the Alaska Marine Highway, including the Craven Light Lighthouse Reserve and an additional Lighthouse Reserve near Fairway Island. Evidence of human activity is sparse but notable, with Cabins tucked away on islands and Ruins located along the shoreline of Catherine Island, indicating seasonal or historical camps. The coastal morphology is defined by narrow passages like Thatcher Channel and the expansive waters of Kelp Bay, where several arms reach deep into the forested interior. This 1997 revision provides a record of these remote coastal lands before the turn of the millennium.
