1955 Map of Bradfield Canal A-1

About this map

The United States Canada Boundary defines this high-altitude landscape where the Salmon River valley meets the ice-carved peaks of the Tongass National Forest. Mining and early transport infrastructure are central to the region's character, evidenced by the Riverside Mine and an Aerial Tramway (Aban'd) positioned near Mineral Hill. These features, along with a Tractor Trail following Texas Creek, suggest a history of resource extraction and rugged movement through the glacially dominated terrain.
