2017 Map of Bering Glacier C-2 SE

About this map

Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park dominates this 2017 survey, representing one of the most significant glacial landscapes in the American North. The map focuses on the immense Bering Glacier and its surrounding ice-carved topography, where extreme elevations and complex contouring illustrate the scale of the ice field. This specific quadrangle provides a detailed look at the flow of the glacier as it moves through the Saint Elias Mountains. Because the area is entirely contained within the national park boundary and includes portions of several townships including t15s r22e and t16s r23e, it serves as a critical document for understanding the modern geography of the largest glacier in North America before further environmental shifts alter its footprint.
