Tongass National Forest dominates this coastal landscape near Yakutat, where glacial waters and marshlands define the local geography. The complex hydrology of the region is centered on the Situk River, which flows through expansive wetlands alongside the Old Situk River. Access to the backcountry is marked by the Situk Lake Trail Head and the Yak. Road to Dangerous River, highlighting the area's importance for local transit and recreation. On the western shore of Russell Fiord, the map records specific points of human infrastructure such as E Gate and the Situk River (Middle Situk Cabin). Small drainages like Kunayah Creek and Seal Cr feed into the broader coastal basin, illustrating the fine-grained water network of the Alaskan panhandle.
