2021 Map of Juneau D-2 SW

About this map

The Coast Mountains dominate this glacial landscape within the Tongass National Forest north of the Juneau city and borough. This is a region defined by high alpine elevations and the movement of water, where the Antler River cuts through steep contours in the northern reaches while the Gilkey River flows through the southern valley floor. The map illustrates a wilderness at the height of modern surveying, documenting the intricate drainage patterns and ice-carved topography that characterize this portion of the Alaska panhandle. For those studying the remote geography of the Pacific Northwest, these terrain features provide a clear picture of the natural boundaries that separate the river valleys from the towering peaks along the Canadian border.
