Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal landscape in the Saint Elias Mountains of southeastern Alaska. The map centers on the high-relief terrain along the western shore of the Lynn Canal, where steep contours drop sharply into the waterway. A portion of Sullivan Island is visible along the eastern edge, showing the characteristic narrow channels and dramatic elevation changes that define this region. Managed by the U.S. Geological Survey, this 2021 edition provides a contemporary record of federal land boundaries and glacial topography in a wilderness area shaped by coastal fjords and high mountain peaks. The landscape is primarily undeveloped, reflecting the managed status of the national forest and the preservation of its coastal mountain environment.
