2021 Map of Sitka C-5 NE

About this map

Chichagof Island dominates this 2021 survey, showcasing a landscape defined by the dense wilderness of the Tongass National Forest. The topography is shaped by the Moore Mountains in the south and the prominent Finger Mtn to the west, while the northern shoreline is deeply indented by Crab Bay. This map provides a detailed view of the uninhabited interior and coastal interfaces of the Sitka City and Borough, where the land finally meets the open waters of the Gulf of Alaska at its southwestern edge. The lack of roads or established settlements emphasizes the remote nature of this island terrain, preserved within the national forest system. Researchers can trace the drainage patterns and elevation contours across various townships, including t47s r62e and t48s r61e, which illustrate the complex physical geography of the Alexander Archipelago.
