Taku Glacier dominates the western portion of this 2017 survey, representing one of the most prominent ice flows within the Tongass National Forest. The map documents a high-altitude landscape where massive ice fields converge among the Coast Mountains, featuring several distinct glacial systems including Demorest Glacier and the curiously named Hole-in-the-Wall Glacier. To the east, the terrain rises sharply toward peaks and ridges such as Hodgkins Peak and Goat Ridge, which define the drainage basins for smaller watercourses like Sockeye Cr. This modern USGS study provides precise contour data for the Organ Pipes and other high-relief landmarks, offering a clear record of the area's glacial extent and mountain topography at the beginning of the twenty-first century.
