South Baranof Wilderness

Alpine reaches of the South Baranof Wilderness.

The South Baranof Wilderness is a federally designated wilderness area within the Tongass National Forest, located on Baranof Island, Alaska. Covering 319,568 acres south of Sitka, the South Baranof protects glacier-carved fjords, hanging valleys, old-growth temperate rainforests and sheer granite mountains.[1]

The wilderness was created by Congress in 1980 as part of the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act.[2]

The highest point in the wilderness is Mount Ada, elevation 4,528-feet (1,380-meters).[3]
