1951 Map of Juneau C-3

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal landscape north of Juneau, where the massive ice fields of Eagle Glacier and Herbert Glacier feed into a network of river systems. In the mid-century era, the region’s industrial history is evidenced by the Bessie Mine and Eagle River Mine tucked into the drainage basins near Yankee Basin. Transportation through the dense forest is limited to the primary Glacier Highway and the Montana Creek Trail, reflecting the isolation of the area's small clusters of Cabins. Along the Favorite Channel and Berners Bay, numerous maritime landmarks such as Sentinel I and Poundstone Rock mark the transition from glacial waters to the complex shoreline of Echo Cove and Bridget Cove.
