About this map

Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park encompasses the northern terrestrial reaches of this coastal quadrangle, where the massive Malaspina Glacier system meets the sea. The shoreline is defined by Cape Sitkagi, a prominent landform marking the transition between the open Pacific Ocean and the northern Gulf of Alaska. Near the cape, the Fountain Stream emerges from the glacial outwash, cutting through a landscape primarily characterized by shifting sands and icy runoff. Inland boundaries for Yakutat Borough and public land survey divisions such as t25s r26e and t25s r27e underscore the administrative overlay on this sparsely developed wilderness. The presence of the Whittier - Yakutat line offshore indicates the maritime corridors that have historically connected this remote Alaskan coast to broader Pacific trade routes.
