Saint Elias Mountains define this high-altitude landscape within the protected reaches of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park and Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve. The topographic detail illustrates a complex glacial system, most notably the massive flow of the Barnard Glacier as it carves through the terrain. This 2017 survey serves as a modern record of ice extent and mountain morphology in one of the most significant wilderness areas in Alaska. The absence of roads or settlements emphasizes the transition from national park status in the north to national preserve status in the south, providing a precise look at the boundary lines of t6s r22e and surrounding townships.
