2021 Map of Ketchikan D-3 NE

About this map

Leduc River and the Chickamin River carve through the steep elevations of this portion of the Tongass National Forest. The landscape is defined by its dramatic hydrography, where glacial-fed waters and small tributaries like Indian Cr drain through deep valleys. This 2021 survey illustrates a wilderness nearly devoid of human infrastructure, with no roads or settlements recorded. Instead, the map detail focuses on the complex topography and extensive wetlands that characterize the river bottoms. For the environmental researcher or local historian, the map provides a precise record of the river courses and drainage patterns as they existed in the early 21st century, set against the backdrop of one of the nation's most significant protected forest regions.
