2017 Map of Sitka D-3 SW

About this map

Chichagof Island and its surrounding archipelago define this maritime landscape in Southeast Alaska, where the vast Tongass National Forest covers the coastal terrain. The map details the intricate shoreline of the Iyoukeen Peninsula and the sheltered waters of Freshwater Bay and Waschussetts Cove. This coastal environment is marked by prominent landmarks such as North Passage Point and East Point, which serve as key navigational features for the waters of the Gulf of Alaska and Chatham Strait. A significant administrative boundary runs through the maritime passages, separating the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area and Sitka Borough. The topographical survey illustrates the dramatic elevation changes from sea level at Tenakee Inlet and Trap Bay up into the forested peaks of the island interior.
