About this map

The settlement of Trapper Creek serves as a central hub in this modern survey of the Susitna Valley, where a network of local roads and trails radiates into a complex landscape of wetlands and small water bodies. The intersection of the north-south Parks Highway and the westward-reaching Petersville Road defines the local transportation corridor, linking the community to more remote backcountry areas. To the south of the main settlement, the Rangeview Airstrip sits near a dense cluster of residential roads including Rangeview Drive and Jirasek Drive.

Water defines the geography here, with the West Fork Moose Creek and Moose Creek meandering through the western half of the quadrangle while Sawmill Creek and Ninemile Creek drain the east. Scattered lakes such as Scotty Lake and Long Lake are interspersed among unnamed ponds and marshlands, illustrating a glacial terrain that continues to shape land use and access via routes like Oilwell Road and Trail Ridge Road.
