2023 Map of Anchorage D-5 NW

About this map

The high alpine terrain of the Talkeetna Mountains dominates this portion of the Matanuska-Susitna Borough, revealing a landscape defined by significant elevation changes and glacial drainages. This modern survey tracks the upper reaches of the Kings River as it cuts through the northeastern sections, while Granite Creek flows southward through the central high country. The map illustrates a wilderness area largely devoid of roads or permanent settlements, emphasizing the natural hydrography and complex topography that characterize the Matanuska-Susitna region. Surveying data from the Bureau of Land Management and the National Hydrography Dataset provide the framework for understanding the township and range boundaries that intersect these peaks, including sections of t22n r3e and t21n r4e.
