How to Use This Tenakee Springs, Alaska Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Tenakee Springs, Alaska. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Alaska or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Tenakee Springs.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Tenakee Springs emerges from the damp, shadowed silence of the dense woodland where the air holds the heavy, mossy scent of earth reclaimed by ancient growth. It lies 46.4 miles southwest of Juneau, AK (from Juneau, AK: bearing 219°T), and is situated 50.5 miles north of Sitka. The landscape surrounding Tenakee Springs is defined by a deep, inland interior, characterized by thick stands of timber that thrive within the sprawling boundaries of Tongass National Forest. A single mile away, the Indian River carves its path through the undergrowth, its cold, clear water providing a constant, rhythmic pulse against the quietude of the forest floor. To the west, the jagged, imposing silhouettes of the Moore Mountains pierce the horizon, their slopes serving as a permanent, stoic backdrop to the valleys that stretch toward the distant, shimmering expanse of Pavlof Lake.

History here is written in the slow, deliberate pace of those who favor solitude and the restorative warmth of the earth’s own subterranean heat. The local economy relies on a quiet self-sufficiency, a lifestyle shaped by the challenge of the terrain and the necessity of resourcefulness in an environment that demands respect. Residents move with a measured gravity, acknowledging the vast, indifferent scale of the wilderness that presses in from all sides. Life in Tenakee Springs is defined by the shifting, subarctic light that turns the canopy into a kaleidoscope of deep greens and slate grays, reminding every inhabitant that they are merely guests in a realm governed by the raven and the grizzly.
