2021 Map of Juneau C-5 SE

About this map

The Saint Elias Mountains define this high-altitude landscape where the administrative boundaries of the Haines Borough Hoonah-Angoon Census Area divide the wilderness. This survey captures a transition between massive federal protected lands, showing the interior reaches of Glacier Bay National Park and the sprawling Tongass National Forest. The map is dominated by extreme relief and complex ice-and-rock terrain typical of the Alaskan panhandle. Lacking any modern roads or permanent settlements, the area is instead structured by the Public Land Survey System, with township and range lines like t38s r61e providing the only reference points across the vast mountain ridges. The geography here is a study in raw wilderness preservation and the intersection of large-scale environmental management zones in the early twenty-first century.
