Susitna North, Alaska

On the Map, for real

The southern border of Susitna North is on the George Parks Highwayand at the intersection of the Kashwitna River. The Northern point of the border is also on the George Parks Hwy and is intersection of the southern shoreline of the Big Su River. There are no signs to indicate when you enter or when you exit Susitna North. Susitna North does not have a dedicated post office or zip code. Mail is delivered by the Willow Post office and therefore has been given the same zip code as Willow, Alaska. This complicates package delivery and other services. The best way to receive a package is to make sure it is only handled by the United States Parcel Service. Fed Ex and other services may claim that they deliver here but do not do so effectively. There is significant space between the villages of Susitna North and its neighboring communities that distinguish it as itself. Susitna North has two restaurants, a fire station, a hardware store, a gas station and convenience store, a credit union, and a small collection of seasonal, local small businesses. Talkeetna is the closest village and is very popular in the summer.

The lack of signs and larger public services like hotels has preserved and protected Susitna North from the ravages of excess population and tourism. Susitna North is the location many struggling, natural fisheries. It is essential that Susitna North remained unmolested so that the surviving species of anadromous fishes can return as it becomes time and safe for them to repopulate. They are all still coming. here. The numbers indicate that the majority of what remain have sought protection from by catch and other complicating factors.

The map that was available was terrible. I managed to create this one but it is not much better.
