Kennicott and McCarthy anchor this 2017 survey of the glacial valleys within the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve. The map illustrates a landscape shaped by massive ice flows, including the Root Glacier and the expansive Kennicott Glacier, which feeds the braided channels of the Kennicott River. Historical transport routes are clearly delineated, tracing the shift from early industrial access to modern preservation, including the Old Wagon Road Trail and the specialized McCarthy Creek Route.
