1984 Map of Bering Glacier A-7

About this map

Bering Glacier dominates this coastal landscape, where the massive ice sheet transitions into a complex system of glacial deposits and water bodies. The sheet illustrates the terminus of the glacier as it meets the Gulf of Alaska, characterized by extensive Moraine fields and specific Moraine on Glacier formations that reveal the movement and sediment patterns of the era. To the south, the drainage network becomes more defined as the ice recedes into the Seal River and Tashalich River, which cut through the alluvial flats. This mid-1980s data serves as a vital record of the shoreline and ice position before more recent decades of change. Near the coast, Midtimber Lake sits as a notable landmark amidst the shifting sands and glacial outwash, marking the interface between the massive ice fields to the north and the open waters of the gulf.
