2024 Map of Bering Glacier D-1 SW

About this map

Saint Elias Mountains define this high-altitude landscape within the Wrangell-St Elias Wilderness, a region dominated by glacial activity and extreme topography. The presence of the Logan Glacier flowing through the southern portion of the quadrangle illustrates the persistent ice-covered nature of the Copper River Census Area. This contemporary topographic record uses SPOT imagery from 2017 to 2019 to delineate the shifting boundaries of the ice and the sharp contour lines of the surrounding peaks. The map provides a critical reference for the Public Land Survey System across townships like t12s r23e and t13s r24e, marking a territory where human infrastructure is entirely absent in favor of protected wilderness and massive geological features.
