About this map

Glacial fjords and industrial outposts define this coastal section of the Tongass National Forest in the early 1950s. The landscape is dominated by massive ice flows like Baird Glacier and Dawes Glacier, which feed into the deep waters of Tracy Arm and Endicott Arm. These waterways provided the primary access to remote settlements and extractive sites during this era of Alaskan development.
