2016 Map of Valdez B-6 SW

About this map

Klutina Glacier and the Valdez Glacier dominate this high-altitude Alaskan landscape, where ice and rock dictate the geography. The survey shows the stark division of the terrain into the Ted Stevens Icefield to the northeast and several prominent summits that break through the glacial coverage. Notable peaks such as Mt Schrader, Townsend Peak, and Abercrombie Mtn provide the primary landmarks in an area defined by massive ice sheets rather than human settlement. The map serves as a record of these glacial boundaries and mountain heights as they existed in the early twenty-first century, offering a clear view of the drainage patterns and topographic relief between the Chugach Mountains and the interior.
