1951 Map of Taku River A-5

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Tongass National Forest dominates this Alaskan landscape, captured during a 1951 field annotation of earlier aerial photography. The map reveals a wilderness defined by its massive glacial runoff and river systems, most notably the Speel River and the Whiting River. These waterways carve through high elevations marked by prominent peaks such as Snow Tower. The terrain shows no established roads or trails, emphasizing the isolation of the region within the City and Borough of Juneau during the mid-twentieth century.
