2018 Map of Bradfield Canal A-2 SW

About this map

The Tongass National Forest dominates this Alaskan landscape, where the drainage systems of the Leduc River and Chickamin River carve through the high elevations of the Ketchikan Gateway region. This 2018 survey reveals an environment defined by deep glacial valleys and steep topographic relief, with the Indian Cr tributary feeding into the larger river basins. The map illustrates the complex hydrography of the Alaskan panhandle, showing how these major waterways negotiate the interior wilderness before reaching the coastal canals. The lack of road infrastructure or permanent settlements underscores the remote character of this protected forest land, highlighting the area as it remains largely untouched by modern development.
