About this map

The confluence of major glacial waterways defines this Alaskan landscape, where the wide, braided channel of the Copper River meets the Tonsina River. In the southern portion of the sheet, the settlements of Kenny Lake and Lower Tonsina represent the primary residential footprint within this riverine corridor. The terrain is characterized by the complex drainage patterns of Hundell Creek and the Cheshnina River, which cut through the northern reaches of the quadrangle. A significant portion of the western territory is designated as the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve, a massive protected area that underscores the wilderness character of the Copper River Census Area. The map illustrates the 21st-century road network connecting these remote communities, providing a clear view of how human habitation follows the natural contours and river valleys of the interior.
