2016 Map of Tanacross A-3 NW

About this map

The Alaska Highway cuts across the northern landscape of this interior region, providing the primary overland route through a terrain dominated by the complex hydrology of the Tanana River valley. This 2016 survey illustrates a wild expanse where the Tetlin River and Kalutna River meander through low-lying wetlands, feeding into an intricate system of named water bodies like Big Lake, Swan Lake, and Willow Lake. To the west, the foothills of the Alaska Range rise toward Chisana Mtn, marking a sharp transition from the river flats to more elevated terrain. Small landmarks such as Rock Point and the curiously named Fish Camp Lake suggest localized human activity and subsistence patterns within this vast network of lakes and sloughs.
