2017 Map of Tanana D-2 NE

About this map

The Ray River snakes through the northern reaches of this landscape, carving a low-lying drainage through the interior of the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area. This region is characterized by significant elevation changes, with the terrain rising sharply from the river valley toward the southern portions of the map, where peaks reach over 1,800 feet. The cartography is defined by the Public Land Survey System grid, covering townships such as T14n R15w and T13n R14w. This 2017 study illustrates a remote Alaskan wilderness devoid of modern roads or permanent settlements, where the primary geographical landmarks are the complex contours of the hills and the winding course of the river. The absence of human infrastructure highlights the untouched nature of this subarctic environment, making it a primary reference for understanding the natural topography before any potential future development.
