2020 Map of Cold Bay B-1 SE

About this map

Mt Emmons dominates the central landscape of this section of the Alaska Peninsula, rising as a prominent volcanic peak within the Aleutian Range. The caldera of this massif contains Emmons Lake, a significant high-altitude water body that defines the local drainage and topography. To the northwest, the jagged volcanic spires of the Aghileen Pinnacles create a stark contrast to the surrounding ice and ash-covered slopes. This 2020 survey provides an exact record of glacial and volcanic terrain, showing the relationship between these sharp summits and the broad glacial valleys that extend toward the coast. The map is a precise study of geological features and wilderness boundaries in one of the most geologically active regions of the state.
