2014 Map of Bering Glacier A-8 NE

About this map

Glacial dynamics and complex hydraulic patterns define this region of the Yakutat City and Borough, where the massive Waxell Glacier flows toward the coast. The topography is dominated by the Central Medial Moraine Band, a striking geological feature indicating the historic convergence of multiple ice streams. Below the glacial face, the landscape transitions into a braided network of waterways, including the winding Okalee River and the Seal River, which drain toward the Tashalich Arm. The presence of the Linear Lakes suggests a terrain shaped by receding ice and persistent meltwater. This 2014 survey documents a volatile coastal environment at the boundary of the Valdez-Cordova Census Area, capturing the precise state of the glacial terminus and the evolving drainage basins that define this remote reach of the Alaskan panhandle.
