English: (photo by James Cheshire)
The mountains in the distance are part of the Alaska Range (east-northeast of Mt. McKinley) in south-central Alaska. The valleys seen here are a few of many draining the northern slopes of the Alaska Range - several have alpine glaciers in their upper reaches. Here, the valleys have braided river systems. Braided rivers (braided streams) consist of small scale to large scale anastomosing channel networks. They have high sediment loads (usually rich in gravel, but sometimes mostly sand) and are typically wide and shallow. Braided rivers are common in mountainous areas. Locality: second, third, and fourth tributary valleys west of the East Fork of the Toklat River, northern slopes of the Alaska Range, Denali National Park, south-central Alaska, USA (looking ~south from the Denali Highway) (vicinity of 63° 31' 40.03" North latitude, 149° 50' 50.40" West longitude) |
