2021 Map of Bradfield Canal B-2 SW

About this map

The international boundary between United States of America and Canada cuts across the southwestern corner of this map, marking a remote mountainous divide within the Tongass National Forest. Dominated by the Coast Mountains, the terrain is defined by high peaks and significant glacial drainages. Mt Middleton stands as a prominent landmark near the border, overlooking a network of freshwater systems that feed into the canal. Numerous watercourses, including the extensive Boulder Creek and Gracey Creek, flow through the steep topography. The landscape is characterized by its lack of human infrastructure, focusing instead on the complex hydrology of Lake Creek and its various tributaries. This area represents a wilderness state where the primary features are the natural contours of the Alaskan panhandle and the geopolitical line of the Canadian frontier.
