Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and Preserve is part of a 24 million acre designated World Heritage Site that is the largest internationally protected area in the world. The Wrangell, St. Elias, and Chugach mountain ranges converge here and include North America's largest assemblage of glaciers and largest collection of peaks over 16,000 feet in elevation.

As you can guess, the scenery is unlike any other in North America and perhaps the world. One glacier, the Malaspina, is larger that the state of Rhode Island and Mt. St. Elias is the second largest in North America after Mt. McKinley. Keep your eye out for one of the large numbers of Dall Sheep that populate the Wrangells as well as numerous other Alaska wildlife.
