2023 Map of Talkeetna C-1 SW

About this map

The settlement of Petersville and the residential spread of Trapper Creek anchor this modern survey of the Matanuska-Susitna region. The landscape is defined by the braided courses of the Ruth River and Tokositna River, which feed into an intricate network of wetlands and small water bodies. In the southern portion of the map, Swan Lake sits west of the community hub where the Parks Highway serves as the primary artery for travel and transport. Local infrastructure is further evidenced by the For Crosby Airport near the eastern edge. The map illustrates a transitional subarctic environment where sparse development meets a vast watery wilderness, reflecting the modern settlement patterns of this corridor between the Talkeetna Mountains and the Alaska Range.
