Bird Creek Pass serves as a critical geographic transition point in this high-elevation landscape within the Anchorage municipality. The terrain is defined by the headwaters of two distinct drainage systems: the North Fork Ship Creek flowing toward the northwest and Bird Creek descending toward the south. The presence of the Bird Glacier near Bird Peak illustrates the glacial processes that continue to shape the topography of this region. Outdoor movement through this wilderness area is marked by the Bird Creek Trl, which follows the namesake creek through steep-sided valleys. This survey provides a precise view of the township and range boundaries, including t12n r1e and t11n r1e, as they intersect across these mountain peaks and permanent ice fields.
