About this map

Alaska Highway serves as the primary corridor through this subarctic interior landscape, where the Tetlin National Wildlife Refuge encompasses vast wetlands and braided river systems. The settlement of Northway sits in the northwest, while the road tracks southeast toward the international boundary near Alcan Border. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Chisana River and the steady flow of Gardiner Creek, which navigate a complex network of marshes and small lakes. On-the-ground features are sparse, punctuated by landmarks like Paradise Hill and Hidden Lake. This U.S. Geological Survey representation documents the modern intersection of critical transportation infrastructure and protected wilderness in the Southeast Fairbanks Census Area.
