2016 Map of Valdez B-5 SW
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
Tonsina Glacier and the Ted Stevens Icefield dominate this glaciated landscape in the Chugach Mountains region. This 2016 survey documents a high-altitude wilderness defined by massive ice flowages and the headwaters of the Tsina River. The map provides a precise record of ice extent and topographical relief near the transition between t6s r3w and t7s r4w, where the Tsina Glacier carves through the southern portion of the quadrangle. For those studying the hydrology of the Unorganized Borough, the proximity of these major ice fields to the active river drainage illustrates the modern state of Alaska's interior glacial systems.
