2016 Map of Healy C-3 NW

About this map

Healy rises as a prominent landform within this 2016 survey, a remote section of the Alaska Range where high-altitude contours define a landscape shaped by glacial activity and river erosion. The hydrology of the area is dominated by the Yanert Fork, a major glacial river system flowing through the southern half of the quadrangle. This braided river channel, characterized by its wide gravel beds and shifting currents, contrasts with the more confined drainage of Dean Cr in the northeast. The map represents a modern look at this Alaskan interior before more recent shifts in glacial melt, capturing the precise topography of the subarctic terrain and the distinct boundaries of the public land survey system, including t13s r4w and t14s r5w.
