Once home to more than a thousand trolling boats each summer and some 2,000 residents in 1932, Port Alexander (US PTD) on the southern tip of Baranof Island now counts fewer than a hundred people. The natural cove offers safe shelter from Chatham Strait storms but has no commercial cargo facilities and no road access. Supplies arrive by barge or floatplane; for commercial liner and container traffic, Sitka and Ketchikan are the nearest ports.
