2023 Map of Talkeetna C-4 NE

About this map

Denali National Park and the adjacent Denali National Preserve meet in this high-altitude landscape within the Matanuska-Susitna Borough. The terrain is defined by extreme relief and glacial drainage patterns, where the headwaters of Cripple Creek flow through the southeastern corner of the quadrangle. This 2023 survey illustrates a wilderness nearly untouched by human infrastructure, emphasizing the natural boundaries between the national park and preserve lands. The map detail highlights the complex drainage networks and topography typical of the Alaska Range's southern slopes, providing a clear record of the area's hydrology and land-management boundaries.
