2016 Map of Nabesna B-6 SE

About this map

The high alpine country of the Wrangell Mountains defines this interior Alaskan landscape, dominated by the sprawling boundaries of Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park. Elevation reaches its local apex at Tanada Peak on the eastern edge of the quadrangle, with contour lines illustrating a steep ascent from the surrounding glacial valleys. The southeastern corner transitions into the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve, a designation that reflects the complex federal land management within this wilderness area. The map shows a region devoid of roads or permanent settlements, where the terrain is marked by intricate drainage patterns and glacial features typical of the Copper River basin's headwaters. Detailed township and range grids, such as t7n r9e and t6n r10e, provide a structured overlay for this otherwise wild territory.
