About this map

Glacier Bay National Park encompasses this intricate coastal landscape in Southeast Alaska, where a labyrinth of islands and waterways defines the shoreline. The map reveals the southern reaches of Glacier Bay, including the sheltered waters of Beartrack Cove and the complex cluster of the Beardslee Islands. These islands, such as Kidney Island, Link Island, and Flapjack Island, are scattered across the Beardslee Entrance, illustrating the geological results of recent glacial retreat. On the eastern shore, the Bartlett River flows into the bay near Hutchins Bay. The absence of roads or permanent settlements emphasizes the wilderness character of this marine-dominated environment, providing an essential record for researchers studying shoreline changes and the glacial history of the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area.
