north to the Queen Charlotte/Haida Gwaii islands, showing ferry routes and the routes most favoured by cruise ships. As a coastal map, it doesn’t go very far inland, but shows the Coastal mountain range to good advantage. Side two provides a very detailed map of that portion of Alaska known as the Panhandle – a series of islands north and west of Canada that is very popular with cruisers. All parks and cruise line routes are shown. Interestingly, at the top end of Glacier Bay, the Canadian border splits the Panhandle from the rest of Alaska; not intentionally, but when the border was agreed upon in the early 1900s, no one realized that the glacier on that site might one day melt. Well, melt it has, leaving a kilometer-long stretch of beach that is part of Canada! Regardless, this map completes ITMB’s mapping of the Pacific coastline of North America from the Bering Sea to Panama, a cartographic task that began decades ago. Inset map of Vancouver is included.
