2023 Map of Valdez B-6 SW

About this map

Valdez Glacier dominates the central southern portion of this high-altitude landscape, illustrating the powerful glacial forces that shape this section of the Chugach Mountains. The map highlights three significant high points: Townsend Peak to the northwest, Mt Schrader in the central-western reaches, and Abercrombie Mtn on the southern boundary. These peaks serve as critical reference points for navigating the ice-carved topography where few other landmarks exist. This recent survey also records the administrative boundary between Chugach Co and Copper River Co, providing a precise look at modern jurisdictional lines in a region where the natural terrain remains the primary defining characteristic of the environment.
