Description:
The author has identified the following significant results. A mosaic was constructed from selected portions of eleven LANDSAT images at a scale of 1:1,000,000. Band 7 images were utilized because of their superior haze-cutting characteristics. The area is clearly dominated by two principal features; these are the Denali and Castle Mountain-Fairweather fault systems which traverse the mosaic from east to west near the northern and southern margins. An interesting feature is the apparent graben formed by the western flanks of the Talkeetna and Chugach Ranges, and the eastern flank of the Alaska Range. The most significant aspect to the mosaic is a dominant NE-SW striking structural grain of the Talkeetna Mountains-Alaska Range complex.
