2021 Map of Ketchikan C-1 SE

About this map

The international boundary between Alaska and British Columbia runs down the center of the Portland Canal, a deep glacial fjord that separates the Halleck Range from the mainland. This 2021 survey details the southeastern edge of the Tongass National Forest, where the landscape is defined by steep forested slopes rising directly from the saltwater. Navigation points along the shoreline include River Point and Steep Point, while the interior is marked by drainage systems such as Walt Creek and Donahue Cr. The map highlights the isolation of this border region, showing no permanent roads or settlements, only the rugged terrain and the marine passage of the fjord.
