An Expedition to Mount St. Elias, Alaska is a historical account of the 1889 expedition to Alaska written by American geologist Israel Russell. He represented the United States Geological Survey in an expedition sent to establish a portion of Alaska's eastern boundary. During the next two years, he explored, under the joint auspices of the USGS and the National Geographic Society, the slopes of Mount Saint Elias and the Yakutat Bay area and took notes which, with some additions from his fellow explorers, later became very detailed account of the Expedition.
