Denali National Park encompasses this dramatic alpine landscape, defined by the massive ice flows of the Ruth Glacier and Tokositna Glacier. The topography is dominated by the narrow passage of The Great Gorge, where the ice is flanked by steep mountain walls. This 2014 survey documents the glacial extent and drainage patterns of the region, including the headwaters of Alder Cr and Whistler Cr. The map illustrates a wilderness area where natural geological forces, rather than human infrastructure, shape the terrain. It provides an essential record of the glacial environment within the Alaska Range, showing the intricate relationship between high-altitude snowfields and the carved valleys below.
