2017 Map of Sumdum C-4 SW

About this map

Hobart Bay defines the southwestern coastline of this wilderness corridor within the Tongass National Forest. The landscape is dominated by the steep, rising elevations of the Coast Mountains, where narrow drainages like Spruce Cr and Sylvia Cr flow westward toward the saltwater. This 2017 survey details a largely undeveloped coastal environment where high-altitude water bodies such as Placer Lakes feed into the Chuck River system. The map provides a clear look at the intricate topography and drainage patterns characteristic of Southeast Alaska, illustrating the sharp transition from the tidal waters of the bay to the glaciated peaks of the mainland interior.
