Tongass National Forest covers this coastal Alaskan terrain, where high peaks and deep glacial drainages meet the sea. The landscape is defined by the steep rises of the Adam Mountains and the winding course of Walker Cr, which feeds into the secluded waters of Walker Lake. Along the southwestern edge of the quadrangle, the saltwater reaches of Rudyard Bay cut into the coastline, highlighting the dramatic transition from subalpine heights to tidal inlets. This 2021 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey preserves the topographical details of a wilderness shaped by heavy precipitation and extreme relief, capturing the precise drainage patterns and forest boundaries within the Ketchikan Gateway Borough.
