2024 Map of Kantishna River B-1 SW

About this map

The Kantishna River snakes through the northwestern corner of this interior Alaskan landscape, marking a watery boundary in a region defined by its complex drainage patterns. Braided channels and extensive wetlands dominate the terrain, where the Toklat River and the meandering Clear Creek provide the primary hydrologic structure. This 2024 edition shows the administrative intersection of the Denali Borough and the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, a division that cuts across the wilderness north of the Alaska Range. The map illustrates a landscape largely untouched by permanent road infrastructure, where seasonal water flow and vast marshlands dictate the character of the land. For researchers, the level of detail in the hydrography reveals the subtle elevation changes that define the different township and range sections, from t6s r15w through t8s r14w.
