Karst Terrain in the Tongass National Forest
Old growth trees grow over Karst features in Basket Bay. Few places in the world have karst terrain developed to the extent that it has in southeast Alaska. Karst is topography characterized by caves, sinkholes, and underground streams. The karst ecosystem is one of the most productive ecosystems for both plant and animal communities in southeast Alaska.
