About this map

The Selatna River meanders through the heart of this landscape in the McGrath B-5 SW quadrangle, highlighting a territory defined by its pristine drainage systems. Flowing through the eastern portion of the map, the Tatlawiksuk River adds another significant waterway to the region's complex hydrological profile. The terrain is marked by township and range divisions such as t26n r33w, illustrating the geometric grid overlaying the natural contours of the Alaskan wilderness.

While largely unpopulated and devoid of roads or permanent structures, the map provides a clear look at the intricate relief and elevations of the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area as it appeared in the early 21st century. The isolation of these river valleys suggests a landscape where travel remains dominated by the watercourses themselves. Researchers of modern Alaskan topography will find these detailed elevation gradients useful for understanding the watershed of the Selatna River.
