2017 Map of Bradfield Canal C-6 NW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Stikine River watercourses and shifting river channels dominate this portion of the Tongass National Forest along the international border between Alaska and Canada. The landscape is defined by the complex hydrology of the Ketili River and Kikahe River, where slow-moving waters form Guerin Slough and feed into Barnes Lake. The presence of named features like Cottonwood Island and Red Slough illustrates the alluvial nature of the valley floor, while Elbow Mtn provides a stark vertical contrast to the braided river systems below. This topography represents a classic North American coastal mountain boundary, where the heavy glaciation and runoff of the region have carved deep, water-rich corridors through the Tongass National Forest wilderness.
