Flagstaff Hill

Flagstaff Hill is a low hill on Unga Island in Alaska, standing on the north side of the entrance to Delarof Bay near the settlement of Unga. It was recorded in 1916 at about 80 feet, or 24 meters, in a coastal summary published in the United States Coast Pilot. Its name is said to derive from a flagpole that once stood there, though it may also be connected to the nearby Flagstaff Mine. Information about the hill was first published by the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey in 1916, and the name was entered into the Geographic Names Information System on March 31, 1981.
