2013 Map of Fairbanks C-2 SE

About this map

The low-lying interior of the Fairbanks North Star borough is defined by a subtle network of wetlands and seasonal watercourses in this 2013 topographic study. The landscape is primarily shaped by the meandering path of Clear Cr, which winds through the central portion of the quadrangle. This area represents the complex hydrology characteristic of the Tanana Valley, where drainage patterns are often indistinct and susceptible to shifts over time. To the south, Dry Cr provides a secondary focal point for the region's surface water. The absence of built settlements or transportation infrastructure within these boundaries reflects the preservation of natural drainages and the persistence of the native Alaskan wilderness in the periphery of more developed hubs.
