About this map

The Gulf of Alaska coastline dominates this coastal survey, where the saltwater meets a complex network of wetlands and tidal flats. Within the protected boundaries of the Tongass National Forest, the Italio River winds through a low-lying landscape defined by shifting sands and glacial outwash. A prominent geological feature, the Akwe Spit, creates a narrow barrier between the open ocean and the inland waterways, reflecting the dynamic nature of this northern shoreline. Human presence is minimal, marked primarily by the Mid Italio Trl that navigates the terrain near the coast. This map illustrates the intersection of forest and sea, showing how the drainage from smaller bodies of water like Triangle Lake contributes to the vast coastal ecosystem of the Yakutat City and Borough.
