The international boundary between the United States and Canada defines the eastern edge of this high-elevation coastal landscape, where the peaks of Mt Flemer and Mt Cote loom over the wilderness. This 2021 survey of the Tongass National Forest showcases a complex system of glaciers and high-altitude drainage basins that feed into the Kikahe River and Aaron Cr. The terrain is characterized by massive ice fields and steep contours typical of the Wrangell region. Without roads or permanent settlements, the map focuses on natural water systems like Goat Creek and the intricate movement of the glacial line, providing a precise record of the regional cryosphere and its shifting boundaries at the start of the 2020s.
