When visiting a museum in Sitka, the guide called all of the Alaskan Native artifacts “materials from curiosity collectors.”

In 1806, the Russians sailed into San Francisco Bay, essentially on a shopping expedition to feed its outpost in Sitka.

The band Skipinnish, which had played at the event, knew of the tree and led the conservationists to where it was hidden in a non-native Sitka spruce plantation on Achnacarry Estate.

The much-smaller community of Sitka also has been grappling with the debate over tourism numbers.

More than 100 people attended the Coast Guard’s town hall-style presentation in Sitka last week on the findings of its investigation, the Daily Sitka Sentinel reported.
