2017 Map of Kantishna River D-2 NW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
The Tanana River dominates this Alaskan landscape, carving a wide path through the Yukon-Koyukuk region. To the north, the terrain rises sharply at Bean Ridge, where the elevation provides a distinct contrast to the expansive river flats and wetlands below. The intricate hydrography of the valley is visible through features like Hot Springs Slough, which meanders parallel to the main river channel, and Rock Cr, which drains the southern slopes of the ridge. This area represents a classic subarctic riverine environment, characterized by shifting channels and seasonal floodplains that have historically dictated travel and subsistence patterns in the interior of Alaska.
