1950 Map of Mount Fairweather D-2

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Glacier Bay National Monument dominates this mid-century topographic survey, documenting a shifting world of advancing and retreating ice. The map captures the complex interaction between glacial flows and the sea, specifically around the deep waters of Queen Inlet and Rendu Inlet. These hydrographic soundings, compiled from earlier charts, reveal the underwater topography beneath the ice-fed bays as it existed during the late 1940s aerial surveys.
