2017 Map of Mount Fairweather B-3 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2017

About this map

Glacier Bay National Park encompasses this coastal wilderness where the massive Brady Glacier dominates the northern interior. The landscape transitions from the high peaks of the Fairweather Range and Saint Elias Mountains down to a deeply indented shoreline facing the Gulf of Alaska. Navigational landmarks such as Boussole Head and sheltered waters like Thistle Cove reveal a complex maritime geography shaped by glacial retreat. The Dixon River provides a rare low-elevation corridor through the mountainous terrain, while several large inlets, including Boussole Bay and Palma Bay, mark the intersection of sea and ice. This map illustrates the dramatic topographical shifts between De Langle Mtn and the active ice fields, providing a detailed record of the park’s coastal environment in the early 21st century.
