1985 Map of Bering Glacier C-1

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The massive ice fields of the Wrangell - Saint Elias National Park dominate this mid-1980s topographic survey, capturing a landscape defined by moving ice and international boundaries. The map documents the high-altitude terrain along the Alaska Yukon Territory line, where the United States Canada border meets the frozen expanse of the Wrangell - Saint Elias Wilderness. Glacial features are the primary focus, with the Baldwin Glacier and Fraser Glacier carving through the mountains to the north and west. In the eastern sector, the Quintino Sella Glacier marks the rugged transition toward the Canadian interior. This provisional edition was compiled from aerial photography from the early 1970s, providing a precise record of glacial positions and elevations before late-twentieth-century climatic shifts began to alter these ancient ice structures.
