About this map

Paxson anchors the southeastern corner of this Alaskan interior landscape, positioned near the junction of vital waterways and road systems. The terrain is characterized by the winding path of the Denali Highway as it traverses the high-altitude topography, crossing Rock Cr multiple times as it moves toward the western reaches of the quadrangle. The hydrography is dominated by the Delta River and the braided channels of the Tangle River, which feed into the complex wetland systems scattered throughout the low-lying basins.

High Valley stands out as a distinct upland feature in the northern section, surrounded by steep contour gradients that illustrate the dramatic elevation changes typical of this region. This 2016 survey captures the precise alignment of the highway against the natural drainages before they reach the larger river systems, offering a clear record of the infrastructure and land divisions within t21s r8e and t22s r9e during the early 21st century.
