Amatusuk Hills

The Amatusuk Hills are a small, rugged mountain range located in the heart of interior Alaska. These hills rise sharply from the surrounding taiga forest, with steep, rocky slopes and numerous alpine valleys and cirques. The terrain is characterized by glaciated peaks, jagged ridgelines, and deep, narrow canyons carved by rushing glacial meltwater streams. The climate is subarctic, with long, cold winters and brief, cool summers.
