About this map

Chief Shakes Hot Springs serves as a prominent landmark along the Ketili River, where the thermal waters meet the glacial drainages of the Coast Mountains. This modern topographic study reveals a landscape dominated by the winding path of the Stikine River, which carves through the heart of the Tongass National Forest. The complex hydrology of the region is evident in the network of secondary waterways, including Shakes Slough and Shakes Lake in the north, and Andrew Cr and Shaktusa Cr further south. The towering presence of Mt Stinenia anchors the western side of the survey, rising sharply from the river basin. The map illustrates a wilderness defined by its water systems, where the massive river delta and mountain tributaries dictate the shape of the land.
