2023 Map of Denali A-6 NW

About this map

Slow Fork and Middle Creek drain a high-elevation landscape in the interior of Alaska, where the terrain transitions from low-lying wetland basins to steep mountainous ridges. This 2023 survey delineates the complex hydrological patterns of the region, showing how the Slow Fork meanders through the northern sections before the elevation rises sharply toward the south. The absence of roads or established settlements emphasizes the remote, undisturbed character of this wilderness area. Topographic contours reveal a series of prominent peaks and valleys that define the watershed boundaries, providing a clear view of the natural drainage systems that feed into the larger river networks of the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area.
