Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park dominates this section of the interior, where the high-altitude landscape is shaped by massive ice movements. Centrally located within the quadrangle, the Russell Glacier carves through the terrain, illustrating the active glacial processes that define this part of the Valdez-Cordova Census Area. This 2017 survey reveals a nearly pristine wilderness environment where human settlement is absent, replaced by a complex network of contours and topographic lines that trace the steep elevations and glacial valleys. The map provides a precise record of the physical geography of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park, serving as a foundational document for understanding the state of these protected lands in the early 21st century.
