2023 Map of Gulkana D-2 NE

About this map

Middle Fork Chistochina River and East Fork Chistochina River define the hydrography of this high-latitude terrain within the Gulkana region. The landscape is characterized by the complex drainage patterns of these glacial tributaries as they move through the copper-rich interior. Surveyed with 20-foot contour intervals, the topography reveals a series of prominent ridgelines and upland basins typical of the Alaska Range's southern slopes. The absence of named settlements or roads underscores the wilderness character of the area, where the primary organizational structure is defined by the Public Land Survey System grids, including t22s r16e, t14n r4e, and t14n r5e. This map serves as a primary record of the shifting river channels and elevation profiles in a remote sector of the Copper River Census Area.
