1995 Map of Sitka D-8

USGS Topo · Published 1999

About this map

Yakobi Island and the western shore of Chichagof Island dominate this coastal survey, where the intricate maritime landscape of Southeast Alaska is documented during the late twentieth century. Within the Tongass National Forest, the map identifies scattered structural remnants such as Ruins and a Cabin, alongside more modern infrastructure like the Greentop Cabin (FS) Boat Docks. The interior is defined by steep relief, including Yakobi Peak and Takanis Peak, while the coast is marked by vital navigational aids like Surge Bay Light and the Lighthouse Reserve. This revision captures a transition toward conservation, as the West Chichagof-Yakobi Wilderness boundary is clearly delineated. Notable for local history is the presence of White Sulphur Springs, a natural landmark situated near the southern reaches of Lisianski Strait, surrounded by a dense archipelago of features such as Winifred Island and Dougherty Island.
