About this map

The United States-Canada border cuts a sharp diagonal through this 2021 topographic survey, marking the extreme northern frontier where Juneau borough meets British Columbia. This high-altitude landscape within the Tongass National Forest is defined by the massive ice fields and peaks of the Coast Mountains. The terrain is characterized by dramatic vertical relief, featuring named summits like Mt Ogilvie and Typhoon Peak along the Storm Range.

Glacial movement is evident in the deep carving of Avalanche Canyon and the precipitous drop-offs at The Wall. To the south, the Spirit Range and Stronghold Peak tower over the ice, illustrating the geological power of this protected wilderness. This map provides a detailed record of modern glaciated topography before further seasonal shifts alter these permanent ice features and summit elevations.
