1992 Map of Skagway B-4 NW

About this map

The international boundary between British Columbia and Alaska cuts across this mountainous terrain, defining the northern reaches of the Haines Borough. At the heart of this landscape is the junction of the Klehini River and Jarvis Creek, where the Dalton Cache stands as a focal point for trans-border transit and historical trade. The geography is dominated by massive ice fields, including the expansive Jarvis Glacier and the Saksaia Glacier, which flow between prominent peaks such as Mount McDonell and Mount Henry Clay. Transportation through this steep environment follows the corridor of the Haines Highway and the Haines Road, which parallel the Dalton (Historic Trail Indefinite). Much of the land is preserved within the Haines State Forest Resource Management Area, emphasizing the region's managed wilderness character during the early 1990s.
