2017 Map of Bering Glacier B-2 SW

About this map

Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park covers the majority of this quadrangle, preserving a landscape defined by massive ice formations. Two primary glacial features dominate the terrain: the expansive Yahtse Glacier, which flows through the central and northern sections, and Guyot Glacier in the southwest. The topographic detail highlights the extreme elevation changes and drainage patterns inherent to this glaciated Alaskan environment. This 2017 survey provides a high-resolution look at the shifting icy margins where these glaciers interact with the surrounding mountains, offering a precise data point for researchers studying the dynamics of the St. Elias Mountains and the ice fields of the Yakutat City and Borough region.
