2017 Map of Denali B-5 NE

About this map

Denali National Preserve and Denali National Park define this interior Alaskan landscape, which remains largely untouched by development. The topography is dominated by the Castle Rocks formations in the south-central portion of the quadrangle, where steep contour lines reveal a dramatic rise from the surrounding lowlands. This survey documents the specific jurisdictional boundaries of the National Park System as they existed in the early twenty-first century, showing the transition from the preserve into the park. The map reflects a wilderness character with no road infrastructure or named settlements present, focusing instead on the hydrography and elevation of the northern foothills. These details provide a precise record for those studying the physical geography and conservation history of the Denali region.
