2016 Map of Talkeetna Mountains C-2 NE

About this map

The Susitna River snakes through the high-elevation terrain of the Matanuska-Susitna Borough, defining the central landscape of this wilderness region. Recorded in 2016, this topographic study documents the river's winding path through the northern and central sections of the quadrangle, including its broad, braided segments. The map's contour lines illustrate the significant elevation changes that govern the local hydrology, as the water moves across various township and range boundaries such as t31n r9e and t30n r10e. Beyond the dominant watercourse, the sheet reveals a landscape of isolated peaks and drainage basins, reflecting the primary geographic character of the Talkeetna Mountains area where human infrastructure is largely absent in favor of natural topography.
