Glacier Bay National Park dominates this 2017 survey of the Alaskan coast near Yakutat. The terrain is characterized by massive ice fields and steep elevation changes, with the Alsek Glacier moving through the southeastern corner of the quadrangle. This map documents a dynamic glacial landscape where the ice-water interface and surrounding wilderness remain largely untouched by permanent human settlement. While the sheet includes township and range designations such as t30s r43e and t29s r44e, there are no roads or buildings, emphasizing the remote nature of this protected environment. Researchers can observe the contours and hydrological patterns that define the modern extent of the glacier as it existed during the early 21st century.
