Abyss Lake is a lake in southeastern Alaska.Photography of Abyss Lake: Lying on the eastern side of the Brady Glacier, it receives meltwater from it, which in turn flows into the Dundas River, Dundas Bay, Cross Sound and thence into the Pacific.
A part of the Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, its water is regularly blocked by an ice dam. When such a dam breaks in a glacial lake outburst flood, much of the lake's water is propelled into Dundas Bay, along with trees, ice chunks, and sediment. This has occurred in 1994, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2005, and again in September 2006.KINY Radio – Juneau Daily News – Latest Edition
