2017 Map of Nabesna D-1 NW

About this map

Gardiner Cr winds through this subarctic wetland landscape in the Southeast Fairbanks Census Area. This region, characterized by extensive marshes and complex drainage patterns, is organized by the Public Land Survey System grids of t14n r21e, t14n r22e, t13n r21e, and t13n r22e. The absence of roads or established settlements on this 2017 survey reflects the area's wild character, where low-lying terrain and numerous small water bodies dominate the surface. For researchers, the map provides a precise record of the natural hydrology and elevation contours as they existed in the early 21st century, showing how the creek and its surrounding wetlands occupy the transition between more defined uplands and the river valleys of the interior.
