About this map

Gustavus serves as a small coastal hub where the managed landscape of the townsite meets the edge of Glacier Bay National Park. The settlement is defined by a spread-out network of local routes such as Mountain View Road and Tong Road, supporting a community that relies on the Gustavus Airport and maritime access to the Gulf of Alaska. The Salmon River winds south through the glacial outwash plain, eventually reaching the waters of Icy Passage. This landscape illustrates the delicate balance of human habitation on the fringe of the Tongass National Forest, with family-named landmarks like Grandpa's Farm Rd and Harry Hall Drive marking local history within the broader wilderness of southeastern Alaska. The mapping detail captures the proximity of inland water bodies like Bartlett Lake to the complex tidal reaches of the northern Pacific coast.
