Cordova Peak and the high elevations of the Chugach Mountains dominate this 2014 survey of the Alaskan wilderness. This area, largely contained within the Chugach National Forest, showcases the dynamic glacial systems of the region. The map tracks the movement of several massive ice fields, including Woodworth Glacier and Schwan Glacier in the north, while Scott Glacier carves through the southern landscape. The drainage patterns are clearly visible as meltwater feeds into the Rude River, illustrating the high-altitude hydrology of the Unorganized Borough. This modern topographical study provides an exact record of the ice margins and peak elevations, such as Mount Chosin Few, during a period of significant environmental monitoring in the early 21st century.
