2016 Map of Bering Glacier C-5 SE

About this map

Bering Glacier dominates the southern portion of this landscape, where massive ice fields meet the complex administrative boundary between Valdez-Cordova Census Area and the Yakutat City and Borough. This 2016 survey illustrates the intersection of glacial geography and federal land management within Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park. To the north, the Tana Glacier flows across high-elevation terrain, showing the intricate contour patterns characteristic of Alaska's coastal mountain ranges. The map is a precise record of these shifting ice masses and the vast, uninhabited stretches of protected wilderness where ice and rock define the topography.
