2016 Map of Tanana D-6 NW

About this map

Melozitna River meanders through a complex network of wetlands and low-lying drainages in this interior Alaska wilderness. The landscape is defined by the transition from the river valley's riparian corridors to the rising elevations of the Slokhenjikh Hills in the southeast. Smaller tributaries like Sithdonit Cr feed into the primary river system, creating a dense pattern of water bodies and marshy terrain typical of the Yukon-Koyukuk region. This 2016 survey provides a precise accounting of the hydrological features and topographic relief within several townships, including t13n r25w and t14n r26w. The lack of man-made infrastructure or settlements underscores the untouched character of the area, where the river remains the primary geographic anchor.
