2021 Map of Skagway A-8 NE

About this map

Glacier Bay National Park dominates this landscape, preserving a massive expanse of glacial ice and towering peaks within the Saint Elias Mountains. This 2021 topographic record of the Yakutat City and Borough region captures the intricate contour patterns of a high-altitude wilderness where natural forces remain the primary architects. Without roads or permanent settlements, the area is defined by the slow movement of ice, most notably the Grand Plateau Glacier and the Fairweather Glacier. These features represent a frozen dynamic system, where the sheer density of elevation contours indicates the extreme verticality of the terrain. The presence of these named ice fields provides critical spatial data for researchers tracking the movement and extent of glaciers in one of the most remote sections of Southeast Alaska.
