2021 Map of Sitka D-5 NE

About this map

Chichagof Island terrain dominates this survey of the Alaskan wilderness, primarily contained within the boundaries of the Tongass National Forest. The landscape is defined by a dense network of drainages and waterways, including Game Creek, Ten Mile Creek, and Freshwater Cr. These systems carve through the interior, with Middle Drain providing a distinct geographic marker amidst the high-relief topography. The northern reaches of the map feature the Kulichkof Reefs and several forks of the Freshwater system, such as North Fork Za. Human activity in this largely undeveloped area is indicated by the presence of a Rock Pit in the northwest, suggesting localized resource extraction or road maintenance within the forest. The map provides a precise look at the township and range lines, such as t45s r62e, which organize this portion of the Alexander Archipelago.
