About this map

Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park encompasses this high-altitude Alaskan landscape, where the drainage systems of several distinct rivers and creeks intersect. The geography is defined by the flow of the Hanagita River across the central west and the Klu River through the heart of the Wrangell-St. Elias Wilderness. Unlike more developed regions, this area remains a study in natural hydrography, with smaller tributaries like Skull Creek in the north and Monahan Creek in the southeast carving through the terrain. The map provides a clear look at the protected status of these lands, showing the transition between the general national park boundaries and the more strictly regulated wilderness area. These federal designations highlight the region's preservation as a primitive environment without roads or permanent settlements.
