2021 Map of Sitka C-1 NE

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal landscape where the wilderness of Admiralty Island meets the tidal waters of Seymour Canal. The map showcases a primitive transportation network centered on the Mole Harbor To Alexander Trl, which provides a vital overland link between the sheltered waters of Mole Harbor and the inland Lake Alexander. This route follows the drainage of the Mole River, illustrating a classic Alaskan pattern where human movement is dictated by the narrow corridors between steep coastal terrain and interior freshwater systems. Navigation markers and hazards define the shoreline, including the distinctive Beacon Rock, the jagged Rasp Ledge, and the protrusion of Flaw Point. Further north, secluded water bodies like Buck Lake and Doe Lake sit tucked behind the coast near Buck Island, highlighting the complex hydrology of this temperate rainforest environment.
