About this map

The Wrangell Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape in eastern Alaska, where protected lands meet across several administrative boundaries. The area is defined by the intersection of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park, the designated Wrangell-St. Elias Wilderness, and the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve. This convergence of federal designations highlights the transition between strictly preserved wilderness and national preserve lands. Drainage from the high peaks is traced by features such as Tumble Creek, which flows through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. The lack of roads or established settlements emphasizes the remote nature of this terrain, where the Public Land Survey System grids of t5n r10e and t4n r10e provide the only primary human-defined markers across the mountain peaks.
