2017 Map of Mount Fairweather B-4 NW

About this map

Glacier Bay National Park dominates the upper reaches of this coastal map, where the massive La Perouse Glacier and Finger Glacier flow toward the sea from the elevations of the Fairweather Range. This coastal wilderness within the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area showcases a landscape defined by glacial recession and high-altitude terrain, including the prominent peak at South Dome. The shoreline meets the Gulf of Alaska, which serves as a vital maritime corridor for the region. A primary marine route, the Pelican - Juneau transit line, runs parallel to the coast, marking the connection between isolated coastal settlements. The transition from the icy heights of the interior mountains to the open ocean highlights the dynamic environment of the Alaska panhandle in the early 21st century.
