1985 Map of Bering Glacier B-5

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Bering Glacier dominates this landscape, its massive ice fields and moraine lines stretching across the northern and central sections of the quadrangle. Below the glacier, the ice gives way to the sharp elevations of the Robinson Mountains and Barkley Ridge, creating a stark transition from glacial ice to high-altitude terrain. This 1985 provisional edition documents the intricate drainage patterns of the Kulthieth River and the Dukioth River, which flow from the southern slopes. The map provides a detailed view of the glacial terminus and the complex network of moraines that characterize this subarctic environment. To the northwest, the prominent Waxell Ridge marks the boundary of the upper glacial reaches, serving as a critical reference point for understanding the physical geography of this remote coastal Alaskan region.
