2023 Map of Talkeetna D-4 NW

About this map

Denali National Park and the adjacent Denali Wilderness define this high-altitude landscape in the heart of the Alaska Range. This modern topographic survey illustrates a strictly preserved natural corridor where human infrastructure is entirely absent, replaced by a complex network of glacial drainages and steep relief. The Swift Fork river system dominates the central drainage, winding through deep valley contours while the smaller Barren Creek cuts through the northern reaches. The map highlights the intersection of several township and range boundaries, including t33n r14w and t22s r23w, which provide a vital framework for land management in this roadless wilderness. For those studying the geography of interior Alaska, this sheet provides a detailed accounting of the hydrologic patterns and elevation shifts that dictate the flow of the region's glacier-fed waters.
