About this map

Wrangell Mountains dominate this high-altitude interior landscape, characterized by massive ice fields and permanent glacial features. The map illustrates a transitional zone where the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park meets the designated Wrangell-St. Elias Wilderness, documenting the modern extent of the Nizina Glacier and Nabesna Glacier. A prominent topographical feature known as Presidents Chair rises in the northern reaches of the quadrangle, serving as a landmark within the vast alpine terrain. This U.S. Geological Survey representation provides essential data on ice flow patterns and mountain topography, including the headwaters area for the Regal Glacier. The lack of human infrastructure or named settlements emphasizes the protected, primitive nature of this wilderness area at the time of the survey.
