2016 Map of Bering Glacier D-5 NE

About this map

Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park encompasses the vast majority of this high-elevation Alaskan terrain. The map's contour lines depict a landscape of extreme verticality, dominated by the peaks and drainages of the Saint Elias Mountains. A singular named water feature, Hunter Cr, flows through the northern portion of the quadrangle, serving as a primary landmark in a region otherwise defined by its remote topography and administrative township boundaries. This 2016 survey illustrates the pristine state of these protected lands, where the Public Land Survey System grids such as t10s r16e and t11s r16e provide a structural overlay to a wilderness devoid of modern road networks or human settlements.
