2016 Map of Bering Glacier C-4 SW

About this map

Tana Glacier and Bering Glacier dominate this glacial landscape within the southern reaches of Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park. The survey illustrates a transition of ice and rock, featuring distinctive landforms like Juniper Island and the specifically marked Natural Arch at the southern edge. This area marks a significant administrative boundary where the Valdez-Cordova Census Area and Yakutat City and Borough meet. The map documents the vast scale of these massive ice fields as they existed in the early 21st century, providing a baseline for geologists and environmental historians tracking glacial movements and terrain features in this part of Alaska.
