1948 Map of Juneau D-3

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this topographic landscape, documenting the glacial river systems and coastal inlets north of Juneau as they were recorded in the late 1940s. The convergence of the Lace River, Berners River, and Antler River into Berners Bay highlights a complex network of glacial silt and braided channels, notably the extensive mud flats at the river mouths. High-altitude ice fields and features like Antler Glacier feed the local hydrology, while Antler Lake sits nestled between the steep drainage of the Gilkey River and the coast. Human presence is sparse in this period, indicated only by a solitary Cabin near the bay, positioned along the jurisdictional boundary between the Haines Borough and the City and Borough of Juneau.
