1985 Map of Bering Glacier B-2

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Bagley Icefield dominates the northern landscape of this remote Alaskan terrain, where massive glacial formations have carved the earth over millennia. This 1985 provisional edition, based on aerial photography from the early 1970s, captures the frozen expanse within the Wrangell - Saint Elias National Park and the adjacent Wrangell - Saint Elias Wilderness. To the south, the Yahtse Glacier flows through the complex topography, illustrating the dynamic ice movements that define this region. The map is primarily a study of glaciology and elevation, documenting a wilderness area with no roads or trails, where the interplay of ice and high-altitude peaks is the primary geographic focus. Researchers can observe the intricate contour patterns that delineate the flow of numerous unnamed glaciers contributing to the larger ice fields.
