About this map

The Saint Elias Mountains dominate this high-elevation Alaskan landscape, where the protected terrain of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve meets the dedicated Wrangell-St. Elias Wilderness. The topography is defined by sharp peaks and steep drainages, including the prominent Mt Holmes and Pyramid Peak which overlook a complex network of gulches and creeks. Glacial activity has carved the region's character, visible in the sprawling Rex Glacier and the high Hancock Pass. Waterways like Dan Creek and Copper Creek cut through the steep-walled canyons of Nikolai Gulch and Calamity Gulch, illustrating the powerful erosive forces at work in this wilderness. This survey captures a pristine mountain environment, showing the relationship between named summits like Andrus Peak and the drainage basins that flow from their slopes.
