2016 Map of Nabesna B-4 NE

About this map

The Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve encompasses most of this 2016 terrain, illustrating a wild landscape where the Mentasta Mountains and Nutzotin Mountains converge. This area is dominated by the wide, braided corridor of the Nabesna River, which cuts through the center of the quadrangle. The map captures the complex hydrography of this subarctic environment, including the glacial-fed waters of Jimmy Brown Lake and several significant tributaries such as Totschunda Creek and Stone Creek. The lack of human structures or developed roads highlights the primitive nature of this protected interior Alaska wilderness. Land surveyors will note the precise Township and Range lines, including t8n r15e and t7n r15e, which provide the only formal grid across these high-elevation ridges and wetland valleys.
