About this map

Mt Veniaminof dominates this high-altitude landscape on the Alaska Peninsula, serving as the central hub for a massive glacial system. Massive ice fields flow outward from the volcanic peak, including the sprawling Crab Glacier to the north and the Hook Glacier which descends toward the southeast. The survey detail illustrates the complex topography of these moving ice bodies, capturing the distinct drainage patterns of the Trident Glacier and Yantarni Glacier. This remote region of the Lake and Peninsula Borough is defined by its extreme elevations and the absence of human infrastructure, focusing entirely on the shifting interaction between volcanic terrain and permanent ice.
