2017 Map of Taku River B-5 SW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Tongass National Forest dominates the landscape of this Juneau-area quadrangle, where the steep terrain of the Alaskan wilderness meets the ice and water of the coast. The map illustrates a high-altitude glacial environment defined by the presence of Bridge Glacier in the north and the winding course of the Speel River as it cuts through the southeastern quadrant. This 2017 survey provides a high-resolution look at the complex hydrography and elevation gradients typical of the Alaska Panhandle, focusing on an area of public land managed by the U.S. Forest Service. The lack of human settlements or road infrastructure emphasizes the isolation of this region, which remains primarily a domain of geological processes and protected forest land.
