Tongass National Forest dominates this Alaskan landscape, where massive ice fields and high peaks of the Coast Mountains shape the terrain. The survey captures the intricate contours of the Herbert Glacier, which occupies the central and southern portions of the sheet, and the southern edge of the Eagle Glacier to the north. These glaciers provide a detailed look at the glacial movement and drainage patterns into the Mendenhall Glacier system. Notable high points like Mt Ernest Gruening and the Folded Towers stand as prominent landmarks among the ice. The map serves as a precise record of these shifting ice masses and alpine features, including Triangle Peak, during the early 21st century, reflecting a wilderness untouched by roads or permanent settlements.
