About this map

Admiralty Island National Monument defines the character of this southeastern Alaska landscape, where the Kootznoowoo Wilderness preserves an intricate network of temperate rainforest and watershed. The hydrology of the region is centered on the King Salmon River, which flows through the heart of the Tongass National Forest before reaching King Salmon Bay. This modern survey illustrates the proximity of Juneau's administrative boundaries to the wild interior of Admiralty Island. Inland, notable water bodies such as Young Lake, Admiralty Creek, and Slide Lake suggest a landscape shaped by glacial activity and high-volume seasonal runoff. The convergence of these water systems within protected federal lands highlights the area's role as a vital habitat and a significant geographic segment of the Alexander Archipelago.
