2023 Map of Seward A-4 NW

About this map

The Kenai Peninsula shoreline meets the churning waters of the Gulf of Alaska in this modern topographic survey, revealing a landscape dominated by massive ice fields and deep glacial inlets. Massive rivers of ice, including Chenega Glacier and Bainbridge Glacier, define the western edge of the quadrangle, while Tiger Glacier descends toward the coast. These active ice features carve the rugged coastal terrain within the Chugach National Forest, creating complex maritime features like Nassau Fiord and Icy Bay. The map documents a wilderness where the high-altitude ice of the interior meets the saltwater of the Pacific Ocean, with smaller inlets like Puffin Cove providing sanctuary along the jagged coastline. The survey highlights the intersection of coastal geology and contemporary environmental conditions in one of the most remote sections of the Alaskan coast.
