2017 Map of Bering Glacier D-2 NE

About this map

Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park encompasses this high-altitude landscape in the Alaska-Valdez-Cordova Census Area. The terrain is defined by massive ice flows and glacial tributaries, most notably the Chitina Glacier and Walsh Glacier, which converge and feed into the wider basin. These frozen rivers carve deep paths through the land, with the Logan Glacier contributing to the complex hydrological network that eventually meets the Chitina River. The map provides a precise record of these glacial boundaries and elevations as they stood in 2017. This survey serves as a vital document for understanding the glacial extent in one of the most remote sections of the American wilderness, where the lack of any man-made infrastructure highlights the sheer scale of the natural environment.
