About this map

Deltana sits at a critical junction in the Alaskan interior where the massive braid of the Gerstle River flows northward toward the Tanana River. This survey captures the complex drainage systems and expansive wetlands characteristic of the Tanana Valley. The landscape is defined by the rigid line of the Alaska Highway, which cuts diagonally across the fluvial plains, providing a vital artery through the wilderness. Local access routes like Cummings Street and Atkinsons Road extend into the surrounding terrain, while the Little Gerstle River and Dougherty Cr snake through the lower elevations. The map reveals the intricate interplay between high-speed transportation infrastructure and the volatile, shifting gravel bars of major glacial river systems.
