1961 Map of Mt Fairweather

About this map

Mount Fairweather and Mount Quincy Adams anchor the international boundary between British Columbia and the United States on this mid-century topographic survey. The coastal landscape is defined by massive ice fields and active glacial movement, with the Grand Plateau Glacier and Desolation Glacier flowing toward the Gulf of Alaska. Deep fjords like Johns Hopkins Inlet, Muir Inlet, and Rendu Inlet carve into the heart of Glacier Bay National Park, showing the intricate shoreline and numerous islands of the Tongass National Forest.
