2016 Map of Nabesna D-1 SW

About this map

The Alaska Highway cuts diagonally across this interior landscape, providing the primary overland route through the complex wetlands of the Chisana River basin. In this 2016 survey, the vast marshlands and numerous unnamed ponds of the Unorganized Borough are punctuated by distinctive landmarks such as Paradise Hill on the eastern edge. The map captures the specialized hydrology of the region, where Gardiner Creek and the meandering Chisana River navigate a terrain defined by subtle elevation changes and expansive wetlands. This detailed topographic study illustrates the infrastructure of the far north, showing how modern transit corridors interact with the shifting, water-saturated ground of the Alaskan interior.
