2016 Map of Valdez D-3 NW

About this map

Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve encompasses most of this landscape, where the elevation rises significantly from the river valleys. The southern portion of the map is defined by the Nadina River, which cuts through the mountainous terrain as it flows westward. This survey documents a largely undeveloped stretch of the Unorganized Borough, showing the natural drainage patterns and topographical contours that shaped early access to this region of Alaska. The Public Land Survey System grid, including boundaries for t2n r2e and t1n r2e, provides a structural framework for a territory otherwise marked by its high-altitude wilderness and the glacial-fed waters of the Nadina basin.
