Explore Whitestone Logging Camp, Alaska, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Whitestone Logging Camp, 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 Whitestone Logging Camp.
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.

Whitestone Logging Camp occupies a rugged expanse of interior terrain where the persistent growth of the Tongass National Forest dictates the rhythm of the horizon. It lies 40.1 miles west-southwest of Juneau, AK (from Juneau, AK: bearing 247°T), and is situated 70.4 miles north of Sitka. Thick stands of spruce and hemlock blanket the undulating ground, their shadows stretching long across the moss-covered earth as the subarctic light fades into a bruised, violet twilight. Only two miles to the west, the persistent pulse of Gartina Creek cuts through the dense understory, providing a cold, clear vein of movement through the stillness of the woods. Further inland, the distant, craggy silhouette of Chedu Ridge rises thirteen miles away, a silent sentinel that watches over the deep, silent interior where the air carries the sharp, clean scent of crushed needles and damp soil.
Whitestone Logging Camp remains a testament to the industry that first carved a foothold into these silent, timber-rich reaches, defining the local character through the grit of seasonal labor. While the modern economy has shifted, the legacy of the harvest lingers in the weathered, utilitarian structures that stand as reminders of the men who once organized their lives around the seasonal cycle of the woods. A short trek of three miles leads to the Spasski Trail, a path that invites a quiet exploration of the wilderness, while the serene waters of Site Lake lie four miles distant, reflecting the vast, empty sky. Life at Whitestone Logging Camp possesses a deliberate, measured quality, defined not by the clamor of the outside world, but by the watchful presence of raven and grizzly in a landscape of immense, indifferent scale.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
