About this map

Tongass National Forest defines the coastal frontier of Southeast Alaska in this mid-century survey, a landscape carved by deep glacial fjords and punctuated by isolated settlements. The map highlights the interplay of wilderness and early industrial extraction, marking a Mine and Placer Mine near the head of Windham Bay. These sites, along with the settlement of Sumdum, represent the region's enduring connection to mineral prospecting and maritime trade.
