2023 Map of Valdez A-8 SW

About this map

Columbia Glacier dominates the northern reaches of this coastal landscape, where the ice meets the sea at Heather Bay. This terrain within the Chugach National Forest is defined by high-altitude glacial features and the drainage networks of the Number One River and Stellar Creek. The presence of the Great Nunatak rising through the ice fields illustrates the extreme topography of the Chugach Census Area. Further inland, Boreas Lake and Devish Lake sit among steep contours, fed by seasonal flows like Fault Creek. The map documents a wilderness environment where hydrologic changes and glacial retreat continuously reshape the shoreline and internal drainage systems.
