2014 Map of Bering Glacier B-6 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2014

About this map

Glacial dynamics and high-altitude relief define this section of the Alsek River region where the Chugach Mountains meet massive ice flows. The terrain is dominated by the sprawling reaches of the Waxell Glacier and the Bering Glacier, which together shape a landscape of complex ice movement and terminal deposition. One of the most distinctive markers of this activity is the Central Medial Moraine Band, a geological signature of converging ice streams carrying rocky debris through the glacier's center. This area marks a significant administrative boundary, where the Valdez-Cordova Census Area meets the Yakutat City and Borough. The map's detailed contouring reveals the massive scale of the mountain peaks contrasted with the broad, slow-moving ice fields that continue to reshape the southern Alaskan coast.
