About this map

Lime Glacier sits at the southern edge of this interior Alaskan wilderness, marking a landscape defined by the convergence of the Nutzotin Mountains and the Wrangell Mountains. The terrain transitions through several conservation designations, including the Wrangell-St. Elias Wilderness in the north and the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park to the south. Waterways like Bow Creek and Geohenda Creek drain these high elevations, tracing the natural corridors of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve. The absence of roads or established settlements emphasizes the character of this remote subarctic region, where glacial activity and high mountain ridges dictate the local geography.
