2017 Map of Talkeetna B-5 NW

About this map

Denali National Preserve encompasses the heart of this landscape, where the braided channels of the West Fork Yentna River migrate across a wide glacial valley. This 2017 survey documents a high-altitude wilderness within the Matanuska-Susitna region, defined by steep contour intervals and complex drainage patterns. The map highlights the intersection of several townships, including t27n r17w and t28n r16w, providing a precise look at the Public Land Survey System grid as it overlays the natural topography of the Alaska Range's southern reaches. The absence of roads or permanent structures underscores the protected status of the preserve, making this an essential record for those studying the hydrography and geomorphology of the Yentna River system in its modern state.
