About this map

The Denali Highway cuts a lone path across this high-altitude landscape in the southern interior of Alaska, following the natural contours of the terrain between major drainage basins. This section of the corridor serves as a vital transit point near the headwaters of the Susitna River, which dominates the eastern edge of the survey. The hydraulic character of the region is defined by the braided channels and glacial runoff of Valdez Cr and Monahan Cr, showcasing the complex water networks that influence travel and seasonal access in this part of the Matanuska-Susitna Borough. Towards the south, Wickersham Cr winds through the hills, illustrating the remote and largely undeveloped nature of the land south of the highway during the early twenty-first century.
