2016 Map of Valdez D-8 SE

About this map

Bottley Cr defines the northern and central drainage of this high-latitude terrain, where steep-sided ridges and deep glacial valleys dominate the landscape. This 2016 survey highlights a wilderness area governed by the Public Land Survey System, with the intersection of t1n r9w, t1n r8w, t1s r9w, and t1s r8w marking the geographic center of the quadrangle. The lack of built infrastructure or roads emphasizes the primitive state of this interior region, providing a clear record of the undisturbed natural topography and hydrography as it existed in the early 21st century.
