2017 Map of Talkeetna A-6 SE

About this map

Rainy Pass Lodge Airport serves as a remote hub in this high-elevation Alaskan landscape, situated near the shores of Puntilla Lake. The terrain is defined by a network of drainages including Happy River, Canyon Cr, and Glacier Cr, which carve through the Matanuska-Susitna interior. Surveyed in 2017, the map illustrates the complex topography of the region, anchored by prominent peaks and ridges such as Distin Peak, Round Mtn, and the Long Lake Hills. The drainage patterns, particularly where Squaw Cr and Indian Cr intersect the larger river valleys, suggest a wilderness landscape where aviation and river corridors provide the primary means of movement. This modern topographic study provides an exact record of the glacial valleys and summit elevations that characterize this portion of the Talkeetna Mountains.
