2023 Map of Talkeetna Mountains D-1 NW

About this map

The Susitna River flows through the northern reaches of this interior landscape, marking a prominent natural boundary in the northern Matanuska-Susitna Borough. This 2023 survey illustrates a wilderness defined by water and elevation, where Coal Lake sits nestled amidst high-altitude terrain. The drainage of Coal Creek provides a central corridor through the quadrangle, tracing a path that reveals the hydrological patterns of this remote region. The map provides precise topographic data for the townships within the Seward and Fairbanks Meridians, including t33n r11e and t22s r2e. For researchers, the document serves as a modern baseline of the natural features in the Talkeetna Mountains, where the absence of roads and settlements highlights the preserved character of the Alaskan backcountry.
