1993 Map of McCarthy C-5

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

The Jumbo Mine and Mother Lode Mine sit high on the slopes above McCarthy Creek, marking the legacy of high-altitude copper mining in this corner of the Alaska territory. Published in 2002 using data compiled across several decades, this map details the complex glacial landscape where the Regal Glacier and West Fork Glacier dominate the northern terrain. The confluence of the Nizina River and Chitistone River in the southeast provides a natural corridor through the mountains, while landmarks like Regal Mtn and Bonanza Peak define the dramatic vertical relief. Much of the area is contained within the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park and Preserve, with the Wrangell-Saint Elias Wilderness boundary cutting through the heart of the glacial basins and ridges like Bonanza Ridge.
