About this map

Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park and the adjacent Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve dominate this high-altitude landscape in the eastern Alaskan interior. The terrain is defined by the drainage systems of the North Fork White River in the north and Lime Creek further south, illustrating the intricate glacial and river-carved valleys of the region. Rising prominently between these watercourses is Solo Mtn, which overlooks the level expanse of Solo Flats. This map captures the intersection of designated wilderness areas, where the preservation of the landscape is prioritized. The presence of Solo Cr winding through the central portion of the sheet highlights the transition from mountainous heights to lower creek beds, providing a detailed view of the natural topography in the Valdez-Cordova Census Area.
