1954 Map of Skagway A-3

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Glacier Bay National Monument dominates this mid-century topographic record, capturing a landscape defined by massive ice flows and high alpine ridges in Southeast Alaska. The map traces the vast reaches of the Mc Bride Glacier and Casement Glacier, illustrating the complex network of crevasses and glacial runoff that feeds into Muir Inlet. To the north, the Takhinsha Mountains form a formidable barrier, with the National Monument Boundary cutting through their high peaks. The presence of named landmarks such as Sitth-gha-ee Peak and Coleman Peak provides specific points of reference for navigating this ice-bound wilderness. Along the northern edge, the Takhin River valley creates a distinct corridor of low-lying terrain, contrasting with the sheer elevations of Red Mountain and McConnell Ridge to the south.
