McCarthy sits at the base of steep terrain where several drainage systems converge, illustrating the high-altitude environment of the Wrangell Mountains. The settlement is positioned along McCarthy Creek, which flows south through a valley flanked by significant peaks such as Bonanza Peak and Green Butte. This geography highlights the area's history of copper exploration, as evidenced by the namesake Bonanza Ridge and the steep Amazon Gulch.
