Property Description
Nestled within the breathtaking Alexander Archipelago in Southeast Alaska, Colt Island is a serene and picturesque destination known for its unspoiled natural beauty. This tranquil island falls under the jurisdiction of the Juneau City and Borough and is strategically positioned just west of Admiralty Island and south of Shelter Island. It is part of the expansive Tongass National Forest, the largest national forest in the United States, renowned for its rich biodiversity and temperate rainforest ecosystem. With its towering old-growth trees, mist-covered shores, and abundant wildlife, Colt Island embodies the pristine wilderness that makes Alaska a sought-after escape for nature enthusiasts.
Colt Island is blanketed in lush spruce and hemlock forests, interspersed with moss-covered terrain and rocky shorelines. The island remains largely undeveloped, featuring a handful of private residences and seasonal cabins that blend seamlessly with the rugged environment. This limited human presence ensures that visitors and property owners can enjoy an unparalleled sense of solitude and connection with nature, away from the distractions of modern urban life. The dense vegetation and surrounding waters create a haven for diverse wildlife, including bald eagles, black bears, Sitka black-tailed deer, and various marine species.
Access to Colt Island is primarily by boat or floatplane from Juneau, which lies approximately 10 miles to the northeast. The surrounding waters of the Inside Passage teem with marine life, making the area a prime location for fishing, kayaking, and wildlife observation. Salmon and halibut thrive in these waters, attracting both local fishermen and sport anglers. Whales, sea lions, porpoises, and otters are frequently spotted, providing a mesmerizing display of Alaska's vibrant marine ecosystem. For outdoor enthusiasts, the island offers ample opportunities for kayaking along its scenic coastline, hiking through its untouched forests, and capturing the raw beauty of nature through photography.
Ultimately, Colt Island represents the essence of Southeast Alaska's wildernessraw, untouched, and teeming with life. Whether as a peaceful retreat, an angler's paradise, or a sanctuary for wildlife enthusiasts, the island offers an authentic Alaskan experience where nature reigns supreme and tranquility is guaranteed.
