1985 Map of Mount Saint Elias A-4

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Hubbard Glacier dominates this high-altitude landscape along the Alaska-Yukon Territory border, where massive ice fields meet the saltwater of Disenchantment Bay. The map records a wilderness of extreme vertical relief, anchored by prominent peaks like Mount Foresta and Mount Seattle. This 1985 survey captures the extent of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park and the adjacent Wrangell-Saint Elias Wilderness at a time when the region was primarily accessible only by air or sea. The southern edge of the sheet provides a detailed view of the complex Shoreline and the glacial Moraine deposits that characterize the entrance to Russell Fiord, illustrating the dynamic nature of this northern ice-field environment before modern climate shifts significantly altered these coastal margins.
