introduction

Umnak is one of the Fox Islands of the Aleutian Islands in Alaska with a total area of 1,776.76 squared kilometres. The island is the 19th largest in the United States, but only has a small population of 39 persons. Mount Vsevidof has the highest volcanic peak with a peak of 2,206 metres.

There are two distinct lobes to the outline of Umnak, formed where Inanudak Bay cuts deeply into the central regions of the west coast; the northern and southern lobes are connected to one another via a relatively narrow isthmus of 5 km in width.

With only one community remaining in this island, and a small population of 39 persons, accommodations options are limited. Ask around locals for any spare rooms they have renting out.
