2016 Map of Talkeetna Mountains A-5 SW

About this map

Talkeetna Mountains terrain dominates this landscape in the Matanuska-Susitna Borough, where the high-elevation drainage patterns of the Susitna Valley are clearly defined. The Kashwitna River and the N Fork Kashwitna River carve through the southern half of the sheet, illustrating the complex hydrologic network that feeds into the region's larger river systems. In the southwestern corner, the settlement of Willow marks a transition from the rugged upland slopes toward the lower valley floor. This 2016 survey captures the area at a time when the balance between wild river corridors like Sheep Cr and the growing corridor of the George Parks Highway remained central to local geography. The map provides an intricate look at the township and range boundaries that define Alaskan land management, specifically across t22n r1w and its surrounding sections.
