2017 Map of Juneau C-5 SE

About this map

Glacier Bay National Park and Tongass National Forest meet in this high-altitude coastal region, where protected wilderness spans the administrative divide of the Haines Borough Hoonah-Angoon Census Area. The landscape is defined by extreme relief and elevation contours, illustrating a transition between two of Alaska's most significant federal conservation lands. Unlike maps showing dense human settlement, this survey documents a purely natural interface of maritime forest and glacial parkland. The boundary line between the borough and census area follows the topographic crests, serving as a reminder of how physical geography dictates political borders in the Alaskan panhandle. For researchers of environmental history or land management, this sheet provides the exact 2017 boundaries for these vast preservation areas.
