2023 Map of Seward D-4 NW

About this map

Harriman Fiord and its surrounding icy tributaries dominate this high-elevation coastal landscape within the Chugach National Forest. The map documents a complex glacial system where the massive Harriman Glacier and Surprise Glacier meet the saltwater of the fiord. To the south and east, the terrain rises into the sharp peaks of the Chugach Mountains, where smaller alpine glaciers like Wedge Glacier, Bettles Glacier, and Dirty Glacier are perched above steep drainages. This recent topographic study provides a detailed view of current ice extents and the intricate shoreline of the Anchorage municipality's eastern reaches. The presence of features like Roaring Glacier and Pigot Glacier illustrates the raw, glaciated character of this maritime wilderness, punctuated only by small drainage features like Hummer Creek.
