2021 Map of Taku River A-5 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Whiting River carves a deep valley through the Coast Mountains of Southeast Alaska, marking the primary drainage within this portion of the Tongass National Forest. The landscape is defined by extreme relief and glacial activity, with Tease Lake occupying a high-elevation basin in the northwestern reaches of the survey area. Along the river's lower course, prominent shoreline markers such as Ox Point and Whiting Point define the transition between the freshwater systems and the surrounding fjord-like terrain. This 2021 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents the remote wilderness character of Juneau City and Borough, where the absence of roads or permanent settlements emphasizes the region's preservation as a primary national forest resource.
