The Wrangell Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape, defining a region where the vast boundaries of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park and the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve intersect. This survey illustrates the intricate drainage patterns of the high country, where the south-flowing Copper Glacier and the headwaters of Tumble Cr carve through some of the most isolated terrain in the Alaska interior. The map reveals the administrative structure of the Unorganized Borough, marked by the grid lines of t5n r9e and t5n r10e. Without established roads or settlements, the map provides a pure study of glacial and mountain topography, documenting the natural state of these protected wilderness lands in the early twenty-first century.
