2024 Map of Kantishna River A-2 NW

About this map

Mucha Lake sits at the center of this interior Alaska landscape, positioned near the jurisdictional boundary where the Denali Borough meets the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area. This topographic survey captures the intricate drainage patterns of the region, specifically along the winding course of Lynx Creek as it moves through the northern sections. The map is defined by its Public Land Survey System grid, clearly demarcating townships such as t8s r17w and t9s r17w. The terrain is characterized by a high density of small wetlands and depressions typical of the Alaskan subarctic, providing a clear record of the hydrography before any significant modern development or alteration. It serves as a detailed spatial reference for the remote interior, showing the natural relationship between the larger standing water of Mucha Lake and the surrounding fluvial systems.
