2017 Map of Mount Fairweather A-2 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2017

About this map

Cape Spencer stands as a prominent maritime landmark where the Saint Elias Mountains and the Fairweather Range meet the Pacific. This coastline is defined by the protected wilderness of Glacier Bay National Park, featuring the sheltered waters of Dicks Arm tucked behind the headland. The map provides a detailed view of essential navigational aids and transit routes in this remote reach of the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area, including the Cape Spencer Coast Guard Heliport and the Ferry Route crossing into Cross Sound. Offshore, the terrain transitions into the open Gulf of Alaska, with hazards like Zip Rock marking the transition from protected inlets to the high seas. The orientation of the mountains against the coastline reflects the dramatic topography that has long dictated maritime safety and passage in Southeast Alaska.
