2024 Map of Mount Hayes C-2 NW

About this map

Deltana stands at the northwestern edge of this interior landscape, where the braided channels of the Johnson River dominate the eastern drainage. This modern survey illustrates a rugged transition from the lowlands into the rising elevations of Independent Ridge, a prominent landform that separates the primary river valley from western tributaries. The hydrological pattern is defined by glacial and snowmelt systems, including the Little Gerstle River and several smaller waterways like Sheep Creek and Bernadette Creek. These streams flow through a complex terrain of wetlands and topographic breaks, while South Johnson Lake and the aptly named Dry Creek sit tucked within the eastern valley floor. The map provides a detailed view of the natural corridors and land divisions in this part of the Southeast Fairbanks Census Area, documenting the region's geography and water systems.
