Where is Little Marshall Island Sitka Alaska?
Little Marshall Island is located in Thimbleberry Bay south of Sitka, Alaska. It is approximately 1 acre at wiinter high tide. My former husband and I built a small cabin on it in 1972 and lived on it with our children during the summers until 1981. The cabin has a view of Mt. Verstovia and faces the road to the old pulp mill. I have many fond memories of fishing in and near the bay, watching seal haul out on the island and whales spouting in the channel.
