1955 Map of Bradfield canal C-6

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Stikine River corridor dominates this mid-century survey of the Alaskan panhandle, marking a complex network of waterways within the Tongass National Forest. The landscape is defined by the braided channels and tidal influences of Guerin Slough and Red Slough, which weave through the lowlands near the confluence of the Ketili River. This 1955 field-annotated map captures the international boundary between British Columbia and the United States, tracing the divide across high peaks such as Elbow Mtn and Mt Cote. To the east, the drainage of the West Fork Bradfield River cuts through steep terrain anchored by Black Crag and Cone Mtn. The lack of roads or established settlements emphasizes the wilderness character of the region during the post-war era, serving as a primary record of the hydrological patterns of the Stikine delta and the isolated Kikahe River valley.
