2015 Map of Anchorage A-4 NW

About this map

Colony Glacier dominates the northwest corner of this high-elevation terrain, marking a landscape defined by extreme relief and glacial activity. The map captures the administrative intersection of the Anchorage Municipality and the Valdez-Cordova Census Area, a boundary that traverses steep mountain slopes and deep valleys. This area is characterized by the vast expanse of the Chugach National Forest, which covers the southeastern portion of the quadrangle. The detailed contour lines illustrate the complex topography of the Chugach Mountains, where narrow ridges and broad glacial basins dictate the local geography. This survey provides a precise record of these natural features and political boundaries in the mid-2010s, serving as a reliable reference for understanding the remote wilderness near the head of Inner Lake George.
