About this map

Whittier serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, highlighting its strategic position at the head of Passage Canal. The landscape is dominated by the massive ice fields of the Chugach Mountains, where the Surprise Glacier, Harriman Glacier, and Portage Glacier terminate in deep tidewater bays. The critical transportation link of the Alaska Railroad is clearly delineated, showing its passage through The Tunnel beneath the peaks to reach the terminal at Whittier.
