1984 Map of Bering Glacier A-8

About this map

The massive Bering Glacier dominates the northern reaches of this coastal landscape, its ice fields and moraine patterns descending toward the Gulf of Alaska. Near the shoreline, Cape Suckling marks a prominent point where the land meets the sea, flanked by the shifting sands and tidal influences of the Kwinlatah Slough and Kiklukh River. The interior is defined by the Suckling Hills and the eastern edge of the Chugach National Forest, creating a transition from glacial ice to wooded slopes and drainage basins.
