Wrangell, Alaska from the air: the area Travel Wrangell’s official map covers

Travel Wrangell

Where the road ends, the map keeps going.

A ferry town at the mouth of the Stikine River, and a backcountry the road never reaches. Its official map draws the Forest Service trails and roads as lines, and puts the cabins beside the town’s museum, food and places to stay.

  • Anan Wildlife ObservatoryReached by boat or floatplane; day-use permits are required July 5 – August 25.
  • LeConte GlacierMassive pieces of ice calve from the face of North America’s southernmost tidewater glacier.
  • Shakes GlacierA glacier-fed lake 30 miles up the Stikine River from Wrangell.
  • Chief Shakes Hot SpringsEnclosed and open-air redwood hot tubs, dressing rooms and benches.
  • Stikine River South Arm RouteThe fastest route on the river, timed around the tide across the mud flats.
  • Public-use cabinsRemote backcountry bases reached by boat, trail or floatplane.

Actual user journeys to Sanibel & Captiva, Florida.

From earlier observed origins to movement across the islands, built from locations people shared while using the official map.

A 24-second view of real activity on Sanibel & Captiva’s official map: worldwide movement, earlier origins, journeys across the islands and location density. Lines connect recorded observations; origin curves show regional connections. The animation reveals historical records, rather than replaying continuous travel.

Sanibel & Captiva’s recorded location density, December 2023 to October 2026. 14,354 devices worldwide, 75,669 recorded locations, and 4,527 devices in the islands area. Detailed island, worldwide and North America maps show brighter areas where more devices shared their location.

Real observations from Sanibel & Captiva’s official map. December 22, 2023 – October 2, 2026. Locations are grouped; every visible cell contains at least three device IDs.

User journeys & origins

All 1,383 reconstructable Sanibel and Captiva movement trails from 1,253 devices, drawn as lines. The islands-area detail includes 688 trails from 618 devices. Origin maps connect 86 devices observed remotely before appearing in the islands area. Leading observed origins: Florida 22, Massachusetts 6, Ohio 5, Georgia 5 and Illinois 5. Origin curves represent regional connections, not traveled routes or home locations.
All 1,383 qualifying movement trails across the available history, with 688 touching the islands area. Teal lines join successive observations. Gold curves summarize earlier origin regions for 86 devices later observed in the islands area; they show connections, not the routes traveled or where people live.
What this shows

Locations shared while the app or web map was open, with repeat events, known bots and known internal IDs removed. Older browser and app records lack source and accuracy metadata; 700 of the 75,669 observations explicitly identify GPS as their source. Recorded accuracy over 100 m is excluded.

Journeys connect observations from the same device and platform, grouped to roughly 100 m. Lines break at gaps over 30 minutes, session changes, conflicting simultaneous positions or implausible jumps. Every trail with at least two distinct grouped locations is included. Origins use each matched device’s earliest recorded location at least 50 km away before its first islands-area observation, on the same platform. Origins are generalized to states or countries; four could not be assigned to a region.

These are observed locations, not continuous travel routes, home addresses or proof that a trip was caused by the map. Device IDs are not a count of individual people. The islands-area total uses a geographic bounding box, not a count of verified visits to businesses.

ServiceOur team can connect activity on your map with observed visits on the ground. The findings only cover people who share their location, so results vary by destination. Explore attribution & analytics →

06Ask

Run your map by asking.

Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Grok or Meta’s Muse to your Wander organization account, ask for the change in plain English, and approve it before it happens.

Connect to Claude or ChatGPT: what it can do

Connect Wander to Claude or ChatGPT and describe the change you want. Fill in details and photos for up to 100 places in one approved step: fields that already have content are skipped, and new photos are added alongside the ones you have.

Most changes, and every deletion, are shown to you for approval before they happen. More than 140 tools are open to destination teams, and the connector works with a Wander organization account. It works on any Claude plan, and in ChatGPT Business, Enterprise and Edu workspaces through ChatGPT’s developer mode (beta, on the web).

A 30-minute call.

The questions your board will ask.

Who builds the map, and who keeps it current?

We build it with you: we gather your trails, places and open data, bring in your brand and set up your embeds. After launch, your team keeps it current in the Wander builder, with quick fixes from a phone, or asks Claude through the Wander connector, or asks us.

What does it take from our team?

A kickoff call, the content you already have (your website, PDFs, trail files and listings), one person who can answer our questions, and your sign-off before anything goes live. We do the rest of the build.

What data do we get, and who can see it?

First-party, bot-filtered analytics in your own dashboard: map loads, the places people chose, where your traffic came from and, with the site embed on your website, the searches that led outside your map. In your dashboard, analytics are aggregated or de-identified, and movement data uses anonymous device codes and hides small groups. You see a person’s details only when they send you something directly, like a suggestion or a claim. Sign-ups are phone-verified; Wander never shares visitors’ numbers with destinations.

Read our Privacy Policy

How do you know these numbers aren’t bots?

Since late August 2026, Wander’s analytics filter bot and crawler traffic out before it reaches your dashboard, and credit embed traffic to the website it actually came from. Map loads are events on the map, not people, and any figure we publish says what it counts.

Will visitors know the map comes from us?

Yes. It’s your official map, in your brand and under your name. On the web, places and events your team supplies show a line crediting your organization, linked to your website; we set that up during the build. In the Wander app, the credit shows on the latest iPhone version.

How do you handle visitors’ privacy?

Your Wander embed loads no session-recording scripts and makes no font requests to third parties. The texts and emails Wander sends honor STOP, unsubscribe and Global Privacy Control opt-outs, under a current, plain-English Privacy Policy.

Read our Privacy Policy

How long do we sign up for?

We agree on the term with you before the build starts, and some destinations choose multi-year agreements. We’ll talk through the options on the call.

What if we decide to leave?

We can export every place on your map with its details, ready for a spreadsheet, so the work you put in isn’t lost.

See what your destination’s official map could look like.

Book a 30-minute call. We’ll show you real Wander maps and talk through what yours would take.
