About this map

The Chilkoot Peninsula dominates this 1991 provisional map, separating the waters of the Chilkoot Inlet and the silt-laden mouth of the Katzehin River. This coastal landscape is defined by the intersection of the Chilkat State Park and the Tongass National Forest, where steep terrain meets the tides. A single terrestrial artery, Mud Bay Road, provides access to the southern peninsula, while a remote Landing Strip and the Pack Trail suggest the limited infrastructure of this Alaskan wilderness at the time of photography. Smaller water bodies like Paradise Lake and Rutzebeck Lake are tucked into the drainages of the Katz and Katzehin mountains. The map also records early land divisions through numerous U S Survey boundary markers that intersect the parkland and forest.
