About this map

Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve occupies the southern portion of this remote Alaskan terrain, where high-elevation drainage patterns define the landscape. The geography is characterized by the headwaters and meandering paths of several significant waterways, including the Little Tok River in the northeast and Suslositna Creek flowing through the central valley. These glacial-fed streams are joined by Suslota Creek and Trail Creek, illustrating a complex hydrologic network that has shaped this interior region. The lack of named settlements or roads reflects the protected status and wilderness character of the preserve, where natural boundaries are defined by the township lines of T11N R10E and T11N R11E. This map provides a precise record of the topographical contours and waterway orientations within this massive conservation area as they existed in the early 21st century.
