1960 Map of Atlin

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The White Pass and Yukon RR traverses the western edge of this territory, tracing the historic corridor through White Pass toward the settlement of Bennett. This map documents a complex borderland where the Alaska-British Columbia and United States-Canada boundaries intersect amidst an expansive network of glacially carved lakes and alpine peaks. The settlement of Atlin serves as a central hub on the eastern shore of Atlin Lake, while the western waters are dominated by the massive reaches of Tagish Lake and its Taku Arm. Evidence of the region's industrial history is visible at the Engineer (Site) and Teepee (Site), marking the locations of earlier mining operations. The southern portion of the sheet is defined by the colossal Llewellyn Glacier, highlighting the ice-bound nature of the Coast Mountains during the mid-20th century.
