2017 Map of McCarthy D-5 SW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park dominates this high-altitude landscape, where massive ice fields and high-elevation landforms define the terrain. The presence of the Nizina Glacier, Nabesna Glacier, and Regal Glacier indicates a dynamic glacial environment where slow-moving ice carves the steep topography of the interior. A prominent high point known as Presidents Chair stands as a landmark amidst the complex contour lines. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey provides a precise record of these shifting ice masses and remote mountain features in the unorganized borough, serving as a critical reference for understanding the physical geography of this protected wilderness area.
