2017 Map of Kantishna River B-4 SE

About this map

The N Fork Kuskokwim River defines the drainage patterns of this Alaskan interior landscape, carving its way through the northwestern and central portions of the quadrangle. In the northeast, the Zitziana River flows toward its eventual confluence beyond the map borders. This 2017 survey reflects a largely undeveloped wilderness within the Alaska-Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, characterized by high-elevation ridges and deep valleys. The absence of roads or permanent structures on this sheet underscores the isolation of the terrain between these two significant waterways, providing a clear picture of the natural topography as it remains in the early 21st century. The map serves as a vital record for understanding the hydrological divide between the Kuskokwim and Tanana river basins.
