2017 Map of McCarthy A-2 NW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve encompasses the entirety of this high-altitude landscape in the Chugach Mountains. The map is defined by extreme relief and glacial activity, dominated in the southern sections by the massive ice flow of Barnard Glacier. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey details a wilderness devoid of modern roads or permanent settlements, where the natural terrain is the primary feature of record. The topographic contours reveal the complex alpine drainage systems and the sheer scale of the ice fields that characterize this portion of the Alaska-Valdez-Cordova region.
