2023 Map of Valdez C-3 SE

About this map

Kenny Lake and the southern settlement area of Tonsina anchor this survey of the Copper River Census Area. The landscape is defined by the drainage of Dust Creek, which flows through a complex series of high-elevation ridges and valleys. While the map illustrates modern land management boundaries like t3s r3e and t4s r3e, the underlying terrain remains the primary feature, showing the dramatic vertical shifts characteristic of this Alaskan interior region. The proximity of these two named settlements highlights the thin corridor of human activity in an otherwise high-relief wilderness, where small stream systems provide the only geographical breaks in the steep topography.
