2015 Map of Denali A-1 SW

About this map

Denali National Park dominates this high-altitude landscape, where the administrative line between the Denali Borough and Matanuska-Susitna Borough cuts across the northern slopes. The map reveals a world of ice and elevation, most notably the lower reaches of Buckskin Glacier in the southwest corner. The terrain is defined by extreme verticality, with contour lines indicating steep ridges and glacial valleys that feed into the larger Alaskan wilderness. This 2015 study provides a precise look at the glaciated topography and political boundaries within one of the state's most iconic protected areas before further environmental shifts altered the glacial footprints.
