This crossing can be found along the Haines Hwy, between Haines, AK (AK Ferry terminal) and Haines Jct.(Haines Jct. can be found on the famous Alaska Hwy). The coordinates are of the brass obelisk located about 300-400 feet from the US customs building. Parking can be found in the large lot adjacent to the customs building. This one is best accessed from the US side (The canadian building is further away from the border).

Here is a picture showing a swath-cut of vegetation along the border as it heads up the mountainside.
