History of Fourth Berg Lake

Local name reported in 1905 by G. C. Martin (1908, pl. 2), U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). This lake was originally one of five Berg Lakes. As a result of the retreat of Steller and Bering Glaciers in recent times, Fourth Berg Lake has joined with Fifth Berg Lake to form Fifth Lake.
