1985 Map of Bering Glacier B-6

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Bering Glacier dominates this landscape, its massive ice flow and lateral moraines shaping the geography of this Gulf of Alaska coastal region. This 1985 provisional edition, compiled from early 1970s aerial photography, captures the intricate glacial margins and outwash features that define the territory before more modern shifts. To the south and east, the Robinson Mountains rise sharply, punctuated by McIntosh Peak and the high elevations of Waxell Ridge. The glacial influence extends to the complex hydrology of the lowlands, where the Kosakuts River drains toward the coast and Hanna Lake sits tucked against the Grindle Hills. The absence of roads or established settlements underscores the sheer scale of the natural terrain, providing a precise record of the Donald Ridge and surrounding ice fields in the late twentieth century.
