2016 Map of Bettles B-6 SW

About this map

Kanuti River dominates this interior Alaskan landscape, carving a deep, serpentine path through the terrain as it flows westward. The most striking geological feature is the Kanuti Canyon, where the river is tightly constrained by steep elevation gradients, creating a dramatic corridor through the wilderness. This 2016 survey illustrates the complex drainage patterns of the region, including the confluence with the Mentanontli River in the northwest. The map provides a detailed view of this remote watershed within the Yukon-Koyukuk region, revealing a landscape defined entirely by its water systems and topography, untouched by roads or permanent settlements.
