2017 Map of Talkeetna A-5 NE

About this map

The Alaska Range defines the high-altitude topography of this wilderness region, where the drainage systems of the Nakochina River and Kichatna River carve deep paths through the interior of the Matanuska-Susitna Borough. This 2017 survey details a landscape primarily characterized by steep elevation changes and natural watercourses, with the Kichatna River winding through the southern portion of the quadrangle. The lack of road infrastructure or named settlements emphasizes the isolation of this part of the range. The map provides a precise look at the township and range divisions, including t25n r16w, which help orient researchers to the public land survey system in this unpopulated subarctic environment.
