Know before you go to Kupreanof

Getting there

  • Skiffs and small boats across the Wrangell Narrows from Petersburg are the only practical way in: the DCRA database records no road connection, no airport, no ferry and no barge landing, and notes Kupreanof is a designated roadless community under its own city charter. (maps.commerce.alaska.gov · checked Oct 16, 2026)
  • Two small state-run floats across the Wrangell Narrows from Petersburg are the city's only front door, with open moorage and no harbormaster. ADOT&PF ports directory: 10'x95' and 10'x47' floats, 6'x50' gangway, capacity 8, open moorage, no harbormaster. (dot.alaska.gov · checked Oct 16, 2026)

Local government

  • One of Alaska's smallest incorporated cities governs itself from its new community building, where the council meets the first Monday of each month. City site (fetched) announces council meetings in the new Kupreanof Community Building; AKML directory lists clerk contact, 0.5 FTE staff, meetings. (cityofkupreanof.org · checked Oct 16, 2026)

Good to know

  • 29 people (2025 DCCED-certified population, Alaska DCRA Community Database); a 2nd class city in the Petersburg Borough. (maps.commerce.alaska.gov · checked Oct 16, 2026)
  • There is no store, no public utilities and few services of any kind: the DCRA community database says the city has no full-time staff and that residents use skiffs to travel to Petersburg for schooling, goods and services. (maps.commerce.alaska.gov · checked Oct 16, 2026)
