2020 Map of Stepovak Bay A-6 NW

About this map

Shumagin Islands and the surrounding waters of the Pacific Ocean dominate this coastal survey in the Aleutians East Borough. The topography is defined by significant elevation changes, with steep slopes rising directly from the shoreline at Northeast Bight and along the southern reaches of the landmass. This 2020 map provides a contemporary view of these islands, where the isolated character of the landscape is punctuated by specific maritime landmarks such as Porpoise Rocks to the northwest. The southern coast features a small cove identified as The Kitchen, suggesting local nomenclature for productive fishing grounds or specialized nautical usage. The absence of roads or settlements underscores the wilderness character of the region, emphasizing the terrain's reliance on maritime access.
