Hole-in-the-Wall Glacier and Demorest Glacier dominate this high-elevation landscape within the Tongass National Forest, showcasing the icefield dynamics of the northern Coast Mountains. The terrain is defined by extreme relief, where dramatic summits like Floprock Peak and Vantage Peak rise above deep catchments such as Washington Basin. This map reflects the state of the ice at the start of the twenty-first century, even noting an Unknown Glacier in the southeastern reaches. The network of ridges, including Ivy Ridge and the aptly named The Scatter Peaks, illustrates a wilderness largely untouched by human infrastructure, where geography is dictated entirely by glacial flow and tectonic uplift.
