2023 Map of Gulkana B-6 SW

About this map

Grayling Lake and Curtis Lake lie within a complex network of glacial kettles and moraine deposits in this remote section of the Matanuska-Susitna region. The landscape is defined by its hydrography, showing a dense concentration of water bodies including V Lake, S Lake, and Tabert Lake that are characteristic of the Alaskan interior's poorly drained lowlands. This 2023 U.S. Geological Survey data illustrates the Public Land Survey System grid as it overlays the untamed terrain, marking townships such as t6n r9w and t7n r8w. The absence of established roads or settlements highlights the wilderness character of the Copper River basin periphery, where the distribution of Marsh Lake and its neighbors suggests a seasonally shifting wetland environment valuable for mapping environmental change or identifying remote backcountry landmarks.
