About this map

Glacier Bay National Park dominates the southwestern portion of this Alaskan landscape, where the administrative boundary of the Haines Borough Hoonah-Angoon Census Area traverses high mountain ridges. The topography is defined by massive ice fields and active glacial movement, including the expansive Bertha Glacier and Willard Glacier which carve through the high elevations surrounding Mt Krause. To the north, the Takhin River valley provides a stark contrast to the ice-locked peaks, showing the drainage patterns typical of this sub-arctic environment. Researchers can observe the positioning of Nunatak Knob relative to the retreating ice of Dickinson Glacier and the terminal reaches of Garrison Glacier, offering a precise view of the region's physical geography in the early twenty-first century.
