Zowonjezeka kudzera pa bwato kapena ndege, Wrangell ndi chitsanzo chapadera cha moyo wa tawuni yaing'ono, ndipo ukadzafika pano, iwe ukhoza kuzindikira kuti ndi Alaska amene iwe unali kuyembekezera. Mzindawu uli pafupi ndi phiri la Clarence Strait, ndipo pakadutsa mtsinje wa Stikine wosasunthika, Wrangell ndi umodzi mwa midzi yosiyana kwambiri yomwe mungapeze m'dziko lonse lapansi, chifukwa cha zochitika zambiri za mbiri yakale komanso anthu ochititsa chidwi.
Mzinda wa Wrangell, womwe uli pakati pa chilumba cha Etland ndi Wales, Wrangell wapeza anthu ambiri omwe amakhalapo komanso alendo omwe akhala akupita kwa zaka zana limodzi. Explorers, akatswiri a ubweya, komanso ofunafuna golide adapeza kuti tawuniyo amawakonda kwambiri ndi momwe amachitira zinthu komanso momwe amachitira zachilengedwe monga nyanja yotchedwa sea otters, yomwe ingaphedwe chifukwa cha ubweya wawo. Pamene amalonda a ku Russia anali oyambirira omwe sanali Akunja kuti afunse Wrangell kuti asungire zofuna zawo pomanga nsanja mu 1833, George Vancouver analidi munthu woyamba woyera kuti alowe pansi pa nthaka ya Wrangell panthawi yoyendera mwamsanga mu 1793. akhala akunja, komabe, chifukwa Vancouver anasowa kupeza mtsinje wa Stikine womwe umatsogolera kumene kuli Canada ndi Coast Mountain range.
