2018 Map of Seward D-5 SW
USGS Topo · Published 2018About this map
Chugach National Forest dominates this mountainous landscape where massive ice fields and high peaks define the geography. The map captures the vital transportation corridor between the Kenai Peninsula and Prince William Sound, anchored by the strategic Bear Valley and the Anton Anderson Tunnel. This passage has long served as a critical link, where the Whittier Access Road and various historical trails meet the sea. Numerous glaciers, including Byron Glacier, Whittier Glacier, and Shakespeare Glacier, are shown carving through the high country surrounding Portage Lake. Peaks such as Boggs Peak and Begich Peak tower over the valley floors, while the Whittier Airport marks the edge of the sound. This survey provides a look at the modern infrastructure that navigates the difficult terrain, including the INHT: Portage Pass Trail crossing Portage Pass.
