Willow and the surrounding drainage basins of the Matanuska-Susitna Borough are captured in this 2016 survey. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition between the upland drainage of Iron Cr and Canyon Cr in the north and the lake-dotted lowlands to the south. Transportation in this era is centered on the Willow Fishhook Road corridor, which connects the settlement to the interior, supported by a network of local routes including Snowberry Road and Purches Creek Road. The map reveals the hydrology of the Susitna Valley, where the waters of Willow Creek and Peters Creek flow through glacial terrain. Numerous small water bodies, such as Twelvemile Lake and Teakwood Lake, characterize the lower elevations, reflecting the complex wetland systems of the region.
