2023 Map of Denali B-3 NW

About this map

Denali National Park and the contiguous Denali Wilderness form the backbone of this interior Alaskan landscape. This survey reveals a complex hydrological network defined by the braided path of the McKinley River as it cuts through the northeastern corner of the quadrangle. The terrain is further etched by the winding course of Slippery Creek, which drains through the central and southern sections of the map. The vast majority of the land is preserved within these protected federal boundaries, showing a landscape almost entirely devoid of human infrastructure or permanent settlements, characterized instead by high-latitude wetlands and seasonal drainage patterns typical of the northern foothills.
