About this map

Wrangell serves as the focal point of this mid-century survey, situated at the northern tip of Wrangell Island where the Stikine Strait meets the Eastern Passage. The settlement pattern reflects a maritime economy reliant on the intricate waterways of the Alexander Archipelago, featuring a Seaplane Base and the Wrangell Airport alongside the Zimovia Highway. Educational and social infrastructure is marked by the Wrangell Institute south of the main town site.
