2015 Map of Denali A-3 NE

About this map

Denali National Park encompasses this high-elevation landscape, where glacial activity and severe topography define the environment. The map highlights the massive frozen flows of Jeffery Glacier and Peters Glacier, which are fed by the steep descent of the Tluna Icefall in the southwestern quadrant. These glacial features are flanked by prominent high points, including Jeffery Dome and the towering Peters Dome. The drainage pattern is dictated by these ice masses, with Slippery Creek and Iron Cr carrying meltwater north. The lack of man-made infrastructure or settlements emphasizes the preserved wilderness state of this part of the Alaska-Denali Borough during the early twenty-first century. Geographic markers such as Jeffery Point and the winding course of McLeod Creek provide the only navigational references in a region dominated by permanent ice and sharp ridgelines.
