Admiralty Island, also referred to as "Fortress of the Bears", is nestled between Juneau and Sitka in the Alexander Archipelago in Southeast Alaska. It is 90 miles long and 35 miles wide. Admiralty Island is designated as Kootnoowoo Wilderness, Admiralty Island National Monument and part of the Tongass National Forest. Admiralty Island is only accessible by boat, ferry or plane. With fewer than 10 miles of road, Angoon is situated in the heart of a pristine wilderness.
The Tlingit community of Angoon is home to more than 450 people year round, although more call it home at least seasonally. The Tlingit culture is being revitalized in this small community. Culture classes are being held for adults as well as children. Enmeshed with talented beaders, painters and carvers, Angoon is a treasure off the beaten trail.
