2017 Map of Kantishna River B-3 NW

About this map

The Zitziana River meanders through this interior Alaskan landscape within the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, defining much of the drainage pattern in this sparsely settled region. In the southeast corner of the quadrangle, Wien Lake sits as a significant hydrologic feature amidst the varied elevation contours. The map reflects the vast, undeveloped nature of the Tanana Valley watershed in the early 21st century, where the absence of roads or established settlements highlights the dominance of the river system. Surveyed with 20-foot contour intervals, the sheet details the subtle topographical changes across the t5s r19w and t6s r20w townships, illustrating how the river's path is influenced by the surrounding landforms.
