About this map

Chugach National Forest land dominates this coastal quadrangle, where the deep glacial inlets of Port Fidalgo and Port Gravina carve into the Alaskan mainland. Compiled from topography established in the mid-20th century and updated with imagery from the early 1990s, the map reveals a wilderness landscape defined by significant elevation changes, from sea level at Beartrap Bay to the 6,422-foot summit of Meteorite Mtn. The intricate drainage systems are clearly marked, including the West Fork Olsen Bay Creek and East Fork Olsen Bay Creek which converge at Olsen Bay. Notable for the total absence of roads or trails, the area relies on water access at points such as Whalen Bay and Spill. This survey serves as a precise record of the shoreline and maritime geography before subsequent coastal shifts, illustrating the proximity of steep peaks like those surrounding Browns Basin to the saltwater estuaries.
