1995 Map of Bradfield Canal A-4

USGS Topo · Published 1999

About this map

Burroughs Bay and the tidal reaches of the Unuk River anchor this Alaskan coastal landscape, where the Misty Fiords National Monument Wilderness meets the Tongass National Forest. The map documents a sparsely inhabited terrain of steep mountains and glacier-fed drainage systems, defined by the confluence of major waterways like the Eulachon River and Klahini River. Human presence is concentrated near the river mouths and shoreline, evidenced by small coastal outposts such as Bishop Ranch, Matney Ranch, and the Burroughs Bay North Base. A significant administrative line, the Wilderness Boundary, separates the protected monument lands from the surrounding forest, following the high ridges from Spur Mountain through the drainage of Grant Creek. The mapping of these remote ranch and cabin sites provides a valuable record of land use in the Ketchikan and Wrangell areas during the late 20th century.
