2016 Map of Healy B-2 SE

About this map

West Fork Susitna River and its upper tributaries dominate this interior Alaskan landscape, which remains largely defined by the hydrologic patterns of the Matanuska-Susitna region. The terrain is characterized by the braided path of the river as it flows through the eastern portion of the survey area, joined by drainage from Monahan Cr to the south. This 2016 survey illustrates the remote, undeveloped character of the Alaskan wilderness near the Denali area, where no permanent settlements or road infrastructure appear on the landscape. The map serves as a detailed record of high-altitude wetlands and glacial runoff patterns, with the W Fork Susitna River carving a significant corridor through the surrounding townships. For those studying the hydrography of the Susitna basin, the interplay between these watercourses provides critical insight into the drainage networks of the Alaska Range foothills.
