2017 Map of Bering Glacier A-1 NW

About this map

Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park dominates this terrain, where massive ice fields meet the southern coastline. The landscape is defined by the slow movement of glacial systems, including Yahyse Glacier, Coal Glacier, and Daisy Glacier, which carve through the high elevations. These frozen rivers flow toward the southern edge of the map, where the elevation drops toward the Gulf of Alaska. The presence of the Karr Hills provides a rare terrestrial landmark amidst the extensive ice and snow cover. This 2017 survey captures the remote character of the Yakutat region, illustrating the intricate contours of the park's glaciated interior. The map focuses on the natural topography and glacial extent, showing no established roads or settlements in this protected wilderness area.
