1991 Map of Skagway B-1 SW

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal Alaskan landscape, where steep glaciated peaks meet the branching waters of the northern panhandle. The area is defined by the dramatic descent from heights such as Mount Villard and the massive Schubee Glacier down to the sea-level tidal flats of the Chilkoot Inlet and Taiya Inlet. This 1991 provisional survey, based on 1980s aerial photography, captures a wilderness shaped by drainage systems like Kasidaya Creek and Dayehas Creek. The map documents the Skagway Corporate Boundary Haines Borough line as it cuts across this uninhabited terrain. For those studying the geography of Southeast Alaska before significant modern development, the sheet provides exact coordinates for isolated features like Paradise Lake and the wide, braided Katzehin River delta near Low Point.
