2016 Map of Bering Glacier D-7 NW

About this map

Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park encompasses this high-altitude Alaskan wilderness, where massive glacial flows and mountain drainages define the landscape. The south-central portion of the map is dominated by the Middle Fork Lobe Bremner Glacier, a significant ice feature that feeds the surrounding watershed. The intricate drainage network includes the North Fork Bremner River and the Middle Fork Bremner River, which carve through steep elevation contours and receive runoff from numerous alpine tributaries like Golconda Cr and Ptarmigan Cr. This 2016 survey illustrates the pristine hydrology and glacial margins of the Copper River basin, offering a detailed record of ice extent and river morphology in a protected wilderness area that remains free of roads or human settlements.
