Saint Elias Mountains define this high-altitude landscape along the international boundary, where the United States-Canada border cuts across steep ice-clad peaks. The northernmost portion of the Tongass National Forest covers the terrain, illustrating the protected status of these coastal ranges. This 2021 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey highlights the immense scale of the East Nunatak Glacier, which flows through the eastern valleys of the quadrangle. The map captures the specialized topography of a region dominated by glacial movement and vertical rock, offering a precise record of the ice margins and drainage patterns in a remote corner of the Yakutat City and Borough.
