2023 Map of Valdez C-7 SW

About this map

Iceberg Lake occupies a high-elevation basin in the northeastern reaches of this mountain landscape, its waters contained by steep, contour-rich slopes and glacial terrain. The quadrangle is defined by its complex hydrography and sharp elevation changes, mapped using 2015 National Elevation Dataset data to show the intricate drainage patterns that feed into the Copper River Census Area. The absence of roads or established settlements highlights the wilderness character of the region, where the primary organizational markers are the Public Land Survey System boundaries, including t3s r8w and t3s r7w. This survey provides a precise record of the shoreline and elevation contours as they existed in the early twenty-first century, offering a baseline for studying glacial recession and alpine hydrology.
