2017 Map of Taku River B-5 NW

About this map

Tongass National Forest dominates this 2017 survey of the high alpine terrain along the international boundary between Alaska and British Columbia. The landscape is defined by the massive glacial systems of the Coast Mountains, where ice and meltwater carve deep into the wilderness. High-altitude ice fields feed into Wright Glacier in the northeast and Bridge Glacier in the southwest, illustrating the ongoing glacial dynamics of the Stikine Region. This map captures the precise surveying of the Canada Usa border, winding through peaks and ice fields near the Alaska Juneau Borough line. The sparse labeling, including the drainage of Hidden Cr, reflects a region shaped more by geomorphology and protected forest lands than by human settlement or industry.
