2023 Map of Denali C-5 NW

About this map

Denali National Preserve extends its northern boundaries into this sub-arctic wetland landscape, where the interior Alaskan wilderness is defined by a dense network of meandering drainages and isolated lakes. The terrain is characterized by the expansive waters of Lake Minchumina in the northeast and Doghouse Lake to the west, separated by a complex system of ponds and seasonal wetlands. The map documents a significant political boundary where the Denali Borough meets the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area. Flowing through the northwest, Dien Creek navigates a low-lying basin that remains largely roadless and undeveloped, reflecting the preserved state of the region's hydrography and natural drainage patterns in the early twenty-first century.
