1961 Map of Mt Fairweather

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The monumental Mount Fairweather stands as the centerpiece of this coastal survey, where the international boundary between the United States and Canada runs through the heart of the Fairweather Range. This mid-century compilation captures the expansive reach of Glacier Bay National Monument during a period of significant glacial observation. The map details the intricate fjord systems of Johns Hopkins Inlet and Tarr Inlet, alongside the dramatic coastline of Lituya Bay and Desolation Valley. To the south, the survey transitions from the high ice of Grand Plateau Glacier to the maritime passages of Cross Sound and Icy Strait, providing a look at the island-studded waters around Yakobi Island and the northern reaches of Chichagof Island within the Tongass National Forest.
