About this map

Mt Yenlo dominates the southeastern corner of this Alaskan landscape, rising above a network of waterways that define the Matanuska-Susitna region. The drainage patterns of Farmers Cr and Mill Cr reveal the intricate topography of the northern sections, while the southern reaches are characterized by the broader aquatic features of Donkey Cr Lake and the winding Donkey Creek Slough. This 2016 survey illustrates the pristine, undeveloped character of the Matanuska-Susitna Borough, where the terrain is shaped entirely by the movement of water from the heights of the Yenlo hills toward the Yenlo Cr drainage. The absence of roads or established settlements emphasizes the wilderness state of the land at this time, providing a clear record of the area's hydrography before any modern human encroachment or infrastructure changed the natural flow of Donkey Cr.
