2023 Map of McCarthy C-6 NW
USGS Topo · Published 2023About this map
Wrangell Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape in the heart of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park. The survey illustrates a terrain defined by massive glacial flows, notably the Nabesna Glacier in the northeast and the Kennicott Glacier further south. High-altitude summits such as Atna Peaks and Parka Peak provide topographical anchor points across the northern sections of the quadrangle. The inclusion of Packsaddle Island amidst the glacial ice highlights the shifting natural boundaries within the Wrangell-St. Elias Wilderness. This 2023 edition uses GNIS and National Hydrography Dataset records to document the region's current geological and wilderness designations, serving as a modern reference for the enduring features of this protected Alaskan environment.
