map_caption=Saint Elias Mountains, east of the Wrangell MountainsThe Saint Elias Mountains are a subgroup of the Pacific Coast Ranges located in southeastern Alaska (United States), southwestern Yukon and the very far northwestern part of British Columbia (Canada). The range spans Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and Preserve in the USA and Kluane National Park and Reserve in Canada and includes all of Glacier Bay National Park in Alaska. In Alaska, the range includes parts of the city/borough of Yakutat and the Hoonah-Angoon and Valdez-Cordova census areas. [gnis|1408965]

Geology

Although most of the range is non-volcanic, portions at the western end near the Wrangell Mountains are volcanic. This region includes two major stratovolcanoes, Mount Churchill and Mount Bona, the latter being the highest volcano in the United States. West of the Saint Elias Mountains is the still-active Fairweather Fault, which is the northward extension of the Queen Charlotte Fault.
