It is 23 km (14 mi) long and 9 km (5.5 mi) wide. It is named for Vitus Bering, leader of the 1741 expedition to Alaska. Vitus Lake forms the southern limit of the Bering Lobe, outlets via the Seal River to the Gulf of Alaska. It is also allegedly home to Vittie, a cryptid and local legend. The name Vittie is a derivation of the name Nessie, the cryptid allegedly living in Loch Ness. 1. ^{{cite web|last=Daniels|first=Howard|title=Small Town Alaska: An Anthology|url=http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/images/usa/alaska.jpg&imgrefurl=http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/alaska/&usg=___W9xWxeMTjyznWinwweMrtLtYQ8=&h=328&w=418&sz=46&hl=en&start=0&sig2=q3RFeB-ciTkPPXK7B8Q8Yg&zoom=1&tbnid=M1IKUMc3vs9B-M:&tbnh=113&tbnw=144&ei=BCfoTcX9M-Pd0QGqzKXEAQ&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dalaska%26hl%3Den%26biw%3D1345%26bih%3D553%26gbv%3D2%26tbm%3Disch&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=112&vpy=106&dur=408&hovh=199&hovw=254&tx=163&ty=105&page=1&ndsp=21&ved=1t:429,r:0,s:0&biw=1345&bih=553|accessdate=12/9/12}} {{YakutatAK-geo-stub}} 2 : Lakes of Alaska|Bodies of water of Yakutat City and Borough, Alaska |
