About this map

Talkeetna serves as the focal point of this late-twentieth-century landscape, positioned at the critical confluence where the Chulitna River, Talkeetna River, and Susitna River converge. The intricate braided river systems and numerous side channels, such as Billion Slough and Whiskers Slough, define the local geography and transport history. Infrastructure follows the water, with The Alaska Railroad cutting a north-south path through the valley and the Airport and Radio Towers highlighting the town's role as a regional aviation and communications hub. To the east, the terrain rises into the Bartlett Hills and the Talkeetna Lakes region, including Christiansen Lake. Local landmarks like the Cem and various Gravel Pits provide specific points of interest for genealogists and researchers looking at the development of this Matanuska-Susitna Borough community.
