Composite vertical photograph of Gulkana Glacier and basin showing measurement sites,
stream-gaging station, weather station, and basin boundary, July 11, 1993. A, B, and D are
primary measurement sites for mass balance, glacier motion, and surface altitude. The
snowline is high for this time of year and is only slightly below the position
typical at the end of the melt season (early September). The net balance in 1993, -1.80
meters, was the most negative net balance on record through 1996. Click on a measurement site or station to go to pages
with more information about that site. (photographs: Gulkana Gl
1 No. 5 and Gulkana Gl 2 No. 4 by AeroMap U.S. Inc.)
