About this map

The Chilkat Range dominates this mid-century topographic survey, marking the dramatic boundary between two of Alaska's most significant protected landscapes. To the west, the Glacier Bay National Monument encompasses ice-carved peaks and extensive crevasses, while to the east, the Tongass National Forest stretches toward the deep waters of Lynn Canal. The topographical detail focuses on the sharp elevation changes around Mt Young, illustrating the glaciated terrain that defines the region's wilderness character.
