2017 Map of McCarthy B-5 SW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
May Creek serves as a small human footprint in this interior Alaskan wilderness, situated at the intersection of protected public lands. The map details the transition between the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park and the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve, a landscape defined by the drainage systems of the Nizina River and Young Cr. Aviation infrastructure is critical in this road-sparse environment, evidenced by the presence of both the Young Creek Airport and the May Creek Airport. Transportation on the ground is limited to the Dan Creek Road in the northern sector. The terrain rises sharply toward the south at MacColl Ridge, while the central portion of the quadrangle is marked by the expansive Baultoff Lakes and the drainage of Kaufman Gulch.
