2017 Map of Kantishna River A-2 SW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Kantishna River and the meandering Bearpaw River dominate this interior landscape within the Denali Borough, carving through a complex network of wetlands and oxbow lakes. The drainage patterns revealed here show the significant hydrologic influence of these waterways as they transit the lowland reaches of the region. Rising above the river plains in the northwest corner, Bearpaw Mtn provides a stark topographical contrast to the surrounding alluvial flats. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey utilizes high-resolution imagery and elevation data to precisely chart the shifting channels and seasonal flood zones that characterize this subarctic river system, serving as an essential record of the area's natural geography before further environmental changes occur.
