About this map

Alaganik sits as a central point of reference where the coastal wetlands meet the rising slopes of the Chugach Mountains. This landscape is defined by the intricate drainage of the Alaganik Slough and Pete Dahl Slough, which weave through the delta towards the Gulf of Alaska. The transition from the aquatic environment of the sloughs and Pipeline Lake to the steep terrain of McKinley Peak is facilitated by a network of trails, including the McKinley Lake Trl and Muskeg Meander Trl. Modern infrastructure like the Copper River Highway follows the natural contours between the mountains and the sea. The map reveals how the Chugach National Forest boundaries encompass both high-altitude peaks and the saturated lowlands of the Copper River Delta, illustrating the geographic diversity of the region.
