2023 Map of Nabesna B-3 NW

About this map

The Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve encompasses most of this high-elevation landscape, where the jagged peaks of the Nutzotin Mountains meet the southeastern reaches of the Alaska Range. In this remote interior, the map documents a terrain defined by steep contour lines and glacial drainages, lacking any permanent roads or settlements. The drainage patterns of Antler Creek and Stone Creek illustrate the classic braided stream morphology of the subarctic, moving meltwater through the deep valleys of the Nabesna region. This map serves as a contemporary record of an unpopulated wilderness where the topography remains the primary feature for navigation and study.
