 This
beautiful seaside town, located on Baronof Island, just 95 air miles
southwest of Juneau, sits nestled between forested mountains and the
Pacific Ocean. The nearby waters of Alaska's Inside Passage are a
popular feeding ground for humpback whales in the late fall and early
spring, while Mount Edgecumbe, an extinct volcano, rises 3,200 feet
above the town. Sitka's past is a unique blend of
Tlingit culture and Russian history, and today enjoys and economy
supported by fishing, fish processing, government, transportation,
retail, health care services and tourism. The climate is mild,
with average temperatures in January ranges from 23
to 35 degrees, while
summer temperatures average 48 to 61 degrees. The
average annual precipitation
averages 94 inches. Visitors may access Sitka by air and water, as
there is no road that connects the community to the mainland.
