2023 Map of Anchorage C-5 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

The Matanuska Valley defines this landscape, where the Matanuska River carves a broad corridor through the southern reaches of the Talkeetna Mountains. In this modern 2023 snapshot, the Glenn Highway serves as the primary artery connecting the established communities of Sutton and Sutton-Alpine with the more eastern outpost of Chickaloon. These settlements, deeply rooted in the region's coal mining history, sit at the confluence of major glacial runoff channels like Kings River and Granite Creek. To the south, the massive presence of Lazy Mountain overlooks the valley floor, while northern labels such as Chitalnu and Tsiyena hint at the Indigenous cultural geography that precedes and persists alongside modern infrastructure. The map meticulously documents the network of local roads, including Kings River Drive and Granite Creek Ranch Road, illustrating the ongoing residential and agricultural development of this high-latitude river basin.
