2017 Map of Bering Glacier C-1 NE

About this map

Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park encompasses this high-altitude landscape along the international border in the Alaska Valdez-Cordova Census Area. The terrain is defined by the massive movement of ice, featuring the convergent flows of the Fraser Glacier, Logan Glacier, and the Quintino Sella Glacier. This 2017 survey documents the precise topography of these ice fields and the surrounding peaks at the boundary between the United States of America and Canada. The layout of township and range lines, such as t13s r24e and t14s r25e, provides a geometric framework for this otherwise fluid and shifting glacial environment. These massive ice systems represent some of the most significant frozen water bodies in the region, serving as a record of glacial extent and elevation during the early 21st century.
