2021 Map of Sitka B-6 SW

About this map

The coast of Kruzof Island, as it meets the Gulf of Alaska, reveals a jagged shoreline defined by rocky outposts and the dense wilderness of the Tongass National Forest. The prominent headland at Cape Georgiana and the heights of Mt Georgiana mark the northwestern edge of the island, serving as critical navigation points for mariners entering these waters. This 2021 survey details a seascape of hazards and landmarks, including Morskoi Rock, Sea Rock, and the Sealion Islands. The coastline is characterized by sharp transitions from open water to steep terrain, with features like Point Kruzof and Twin Point punctuating the narrow strip of land between the sea and the forest interior. These named landmarks are essential for understanding the maritime geography and the protection provided by the national forest boundary.
