2024 Map of Bering Glacier D-6 SE

About this map

Wrangell-St Elias Wilderness occupies a central role in this 2024 survey, highlighting the protected status of this remote Alaskan interior. The landscape is defined by its dramatic topographic relief, where massive elevation changes are charted between unnamed peaks and glacial drainages. This recent data shows the precise alignment of the Copper River Census Area Chugach Census Area boundary as it traverses the high-altitude terrain. The lack of named roads or established settlements emphasizes the primitive state of the region, where the Public Land Survey System grids such as t12s r13e and t12s r14e provide the primary framework for navigation and land management. Researchers can trace the complex network of mountain streams and alpine lakes that feed into the larger glacial systems of the region.
