2017 Map of Skagway A-3 NW

About this map

The Takhinsha Mountains dominate this high-elevation wilderness within Glacier Bay National Park, where the terrain drops sharply toward the glacial valley floor. A shared boundary between Haines Borough Hoonah-Angoon Census Area snakes across the ridges, marking a remote political division in the Alaskan panhandle. The northern edge of the sheet is defined by the Takhin River, which cuts through the extreme topography of the northern Panhandle. The map's contour density reflects the verticality of this landscape, illustrating the challenges of the maritime mountain environment just miles from the coast. This study primarily documents the natural interface between the protected parklands and the surrounding borough, emphasizing the drainage patterns of the high ice fields and mountain slopes.
