2024 Map of Cordova B-2 NE

About this map

Chugach National Forest encompasses this coastal Alaskan landscape, where the topography transitions from steep, glaciated mountain ridges in the north to a complex network of wetlands and water bodies in the south. The southern half of the map is defined by the significant basins of Martin Lake and Little Martin Lake, which are linked by intricate drainage systems that underscore the region's high hydrologic activity. Along the eastern edge, Tokun Creek flows through a narrow corridor between the rising slopes and the low-lying marshlands. This survey illustrates a wilderness nearly devoid of human infrastructure, focusing instead on the natural boundaries and water systems that dictate movement and land use within the national forest. The sharp contrast between the 3,000-foot peaks and the sea-level wetlands illustrates the dynamic geological forces at work near the Gulf of Alaska.
