Steese National Conservation Area and the Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve dominate this remote Alaskan interior landscape along the boundary of the Fairbanks North Star Borough and the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area. The terrain is characterized by the high elevations of the Mertie Mountains and the drainage network of the Salcha River. This survey illustrates a vast wilderness area preserved for its natural and scientific value, where human infrastructure is entirely absent in favor of protected ecosystems and natural watercourses like Willow Cr. The mapping reflects the administrative complexities of large-scale land conservation in the late 2010s, focusing on the preservation of the Tanana-Yukon Uplands.
