2016 Map of Tanana B-4 SE

About this map

Schieffelin Cr defines the drainage of this interior Alaska wilderness, cutting through the high country of the Yukon-Koyukuk region. This topographic study emphasizes the steep, undeveloped terrain where the creek system, including the headwaters of Spicer Cr and Coal Cr, dominates the landscape. The map is organized by the Public Land Survey System, showing the convergence of four townships: T6n R20w, T6n R19w, T5n R20w, and T5n R19w. The absence of roads or permanent structures reflects the era's continued isolation in this part of the Tanana region, where the natural watercourses remain the primary landmarks for navigation and land management. The contour lines reveal a complex series of ridges and valleys that shape the watershed between these three named creeks.
