Geologic map of the Silver Bow Basin (center right)
The Silver Bow Basin, often written as Silverbow Basin, is a valley located 2.4 miles (3.9 km) northeast of Juneau, Alaska, USA. It is situated on Gold Creek in an area north of Icy Gulch, and approximately 1.5 miles (2.4 km) north of Gastineau Peak. A trail from Juneau leads directly to the mountainside.[1] The basin was the site of the earliest gold discovery in the Juneau area,[2] leading to the establishment of the town called Juneau.[3]
