2017 Map of Skagway A-4 NW

About this map

Glacier Bay National Park dominates this 2017 survey, revealing a landscape defined by dramatic glacial movement and high-elevation terrain. This map records the positions of the Muir Glacier and Morse Glacier at a specific moment in their modern retreat. The terrain transition is marked by the Haines Borough Hoonah-Angoon Census Area boundary, which cuts across the northern reaches of the quadrangle. The map is primarily an exploration of ice and elevation, following the contours of the ice fields and the steep slopes of the surrounding peaks within the national park boundaries.
