About this map

The Chugach Mountains dominate this glacial corridor, where the intersection of protected federal lands and powerful waterways defines the Alaskan wilderness. Positioned at the western edge of Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park and within the Chugach National Forest, the map captures a landscape shaped by massive ice movements. The Allen Glacier and Allen River flow toward the primary drainage of the Copper River, which is marked by intricate water patterns such as Nels Miller Slough. Evidence of human passage through this high-altitude terrain is limited to the Shiels Glacier Trail in the northwest, illustrating the minimal development in this protected region. The map provides a precise record of township boundaries, including t12s r4e and t12s r5e, which are critical for tracking land claims and environmental changes in the Unorganized Borough.
