2017 Map of Sitka D-3 SE

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal landscape where the western edge of Admiralty Island meets the Gulf of Alaska. The terrain is characterized by steep coastal drainages and significant inland water bodies, most notably the large expanse of Lake Florence. This wilderness area is partitioned by the boundary between the Sitka Borough and the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area, reflecting the complex administrative geography of Southeast Alaska. Coastal features such as Fishery Point and the mouth of Fishery Cr provide specific points of reference along a shoreline defined by deep inlets and narrow waterways like Ward Cr. The map illustrates a remote, undeveloped maritime environment where the primary landmarks are natural water systems and federal forest boundaries.
