2017 Map of Atlin A-8 SW

About this map

Lace River cuts through the heavy topography of this Southeast Alaska wilderness, following a narrow valley floor between the towering peaks of the Coast Mountains. This 2017 survey illustrates the complex drainage patterns of the region, where numerous unnamed tributaries descend from high-elevation ice and snow fields into the main river channel. Much of the territory falls within the protected boundaries of the Tongass National Forest, an area defined by its lack of established roads or permanent settlements. The map provides a precise look at the township and range lines, such as t32s r62e and t33s r63e, which partition this remote terrain for federal management and conservation purposes.
