2016 Map of Anchorage B-8 NE

About this map

The settlement of Knik stands at the edge of the Knik Arm, where the landscape transitions from the waters of the inlet to a terrain dotted with small lakes and aviation infrastructure. This 2016 survey highlights a unique Alaskan residential pattern, where private airfields like Birchwater Airport, Lawrence Airstrip, and the Huttunen Strip are integrated directly into the local road network. The map reveals the expansion of Knik-Fairview, showing a dense grid of named streets such as Knik Knack Mud Shack Road and Trimotor Street that push into the surrounding wilderness. Interior water bodies including Threemile Lake, Knik Lake, and Caves Lake are central landmarks for the community, while Fish Cr drains toward the coast. The southern portion of the sheet is defined by the vast tidal flats and the boundary between the Matanuska-Susitna Borough and Anchorage Municipality.
