1959 Map of Yakutat A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Dry Bay dominates this coastal survey, where the massive delta of the Alsek River meets the Gulf of Alaska. The landscape is a complex network of glacial runoff and tidal influence, characterized by extensive Tidal Flats and seasonal waterways like Muddy Creek and the Tay River. Within the southern reaches of the Tongass National Forest, the map captures the remnants of early twentieth-century industry and transport, notably the Old RR Grade and a Cannery (Aband) near the shoreline.
