2016 Map of Big Delta A-3 NE

About this map

Volkmar Lake sits at the southern edge of this interior Alaskan landscape, providing a rare focal point in a region dominated by intricate river systems and wetland flats. The Goodpaster River meanders across the northern portion of the quadrangle, joined by the S Fork Goodpaster River and the smaller White Cr. The terrain alternates between low-lying riparian basins and higher ridgelines, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the Unorganized Borough. This 2016 survey documents the untouched character of the wilderness within township boundaries such as t8s r13e and t9s r14e, where the lack of roads or permanent settlements emphasizes the dominance of the river networks over the landscape.
