2023 Map of Nabesna A-1 SW

About this map

The Nutzotin Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape within the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve in Alaska’s interior. The terrain is defined by extreme relief and glacial activity, notably the Carl Glacier situated in the northwestern portion of the map. Drainage patterns are established by the glacial melt of Gravel Creek and Horsfeld Creek, which carve deep valleys between the prominent ridges. This 2023 edition documents the complex topographical character of a region that remains largely untouched by infrastructure, showing the natural intersections of the Wrangell and Saint Elias ranges. The absence of roads or permanent settlements underscores the isolation of these eastern Alaskan highlands near the Canadian border.
