2023 Map of Seward C-5 SW

About this map

The Chugach National Forest landscape shown here is defined by significant ice fields and glacial drainage systems on the Kenai Peninsula. This recent topographic study captures the contemporary boundaries of the Blackstone Glacier, Beloit Glacier, and Taylor Glacier as they interact with the surrounding terrain. To the south, the Claremont Glacier feeds into the high-altitude drainage basins that contribute to the Kings River system. The map provides a detailed view of the modern hydrological and topographical state of this roadless region, recording the current extent of these massive ice features within the federal forest lands. The lack of infrastructure and named settlements emphasizes the purely glacial and riverine character of this portion of the peninsula.
