2023 Map of McCarthy B-6 SE

About this map

The Chitina River flows through the southern portion of this landscape, carving a wide valley that marks the boundary of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park. This 2023 survey documents the intersection of several vast protected areas, including the Wrangell-St. Elias Wilderness and the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve. The terrain is characterized by a high concentration of wetlands and intricate water systems in the northern reaches, where the Nizina River skirts the top edge of the quadrangle. Interior features like Threemile Lake and Star Lake are set against a backdrop of complex contour lines, reflecting the elevation changes typical of this Alaskan wilderness region. The map provides a detailed view of the natural hydrology and land designations before any major human infrastructure, focusing on the preservation of the Copper River Census Area's natural state.
