1960 Map of Juneau D-2

About this map

The international border between Alaska and British Columbia runs through this high-altitude landscape, defining the northeast edge of the Haines Borough and City and Borough of Juneau line. This 1960 survey, based on 1948 aerial photography, records a massive network of active ice fields and high-relief terrain where the Antler Glacier and Bucher Glacier dominate the central drainage. The map provides precise locations for named summits like Mount Bressler and markers along the Canada-United States boundary such as Boundary Peak 99. To the south, the dramatic convergence of the Gilkey Glacier and Echo Glacier carves through the land near the steep formation of The Wall and the depths of Avalanche Canyon.
