1952 Map of Juneau C-3

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal landscape north of Juneau, where the transition from saltwater to ice fields is marked by massive glaciers and industrial mining attempts. The presence of the Bessie Mine and Eagle River Mine indicates the era's focus on extracting resources from the Yankee Basin and surrounding ridges. Connectivity in the early 1950s was centered on the Glacier Highway and the Montana Creek Trail, which provided access to the lower reaches of the Eagle River and Herbert River.
