2023 Map of Nabesna B-2 NW

About this map

The Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve dominates this portion of the interior, where the landscape is defined by the high elevations of the Nutzotin Mountains along the southern border. This 2023 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents the remote drainage patterns of the region, specifically following the course of Stuver Creek as it flows north through the preserve. The boundary between Copper River Co and Southeast Fairbanks Co cuts through the western edge of the sheet, providing a precise record of administrative divisions in this largely untouched terrain. The map also traces the headwaters of Edge Creek in the southeast, offering a clear view of the complex topography and natural hydrology that characterizes this section of the Alaskan wilderness before any modern infrastructure development.
