Mt Saint Elias dominates this high-altitude landscape along the international boundary where the Canada-United States border cuts across the massive ice fields of the Saint Elias Mountains. This survey captures the frozen geometry of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park, focusing on the confluence of the Tyndall Glacier and the Agassiz Glacier. The terrain is characterized by extreme elevation changes, rising from the glacial basins toward the summit of Haydon Peak. This map serves as a precise record of the glacial extent and topographic contours in the Yakutat Borough during the early 21st century, illustrating how these immense ice flows carve the Alaskan landscape at one of its highest and most remote points.
