About this map

Nabesna Glacier dominates the northern reaches of this glaciated landscape, situated within the expansive boundaries of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve. Moving southward, the terrain transitions into the protected wilderness of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park. The map reveals a land defined by dramatic elevation changes, where high-altitude ice fields and steep contours illustrate the raw physical geography of the Valdez-Cordova region. Without roads or permanent settlements, the area is documented through its natural landmarks and the precise delineations of the Public Land Survey System, including t2n r13e and t2n r14e. This cartographic record provides a focused view of the intersection between a massive glacial system and federally preserved lands in the early twenty-first century.
