Tongass National Forest dominates this Alaskan landscape, where the terrain is defined by steep ridges and glacial drainages. Significant peaks such as Hirst Mtn, Rust Mtn, and Freeburn Mtn rise sharply from the coastline, while Pinnacle Peak stands as a prominent landmark to the south. The hydrological network is centered on the Black River and the shorter Marble Cr, with the high-elevation Rust Lake feeding into the Rust River system. This 2021 survey illustrates a wilderness nearly untouched by permanent settlement or infrastructure, preserving the drainage patterns of the Alexander Archipelago. The map serves as a precise record of the shoreline and interior topography for this remote section of the Sitka City and Borough.
