Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park dominates this high-altitude landscape in the Saint Elias Mountains. The map detail centers on the massive frozen expanse of the Hubbard Glacier, which flows along the eastern edge of the quadrangle. To the west, the Valerie Glacier carves through steep slopes, both contributing to one of the most active glacial systems in North America. The towering peak of Mt Foresta stands as a primary landmark in this ice-bound wilderness, marking a significant elevation point within the park boundaries. This 2017 survey reflects the contemporary extent of these glacial movements and the remote mountain topography near the Gulf of Alaska, where the landscape is defined entirely by natural forces rather than human settlement.
