2017 Map of Beaver B-4 SW

About this map

Yukon Flats defines the landscape of this interior Alaska territory, characterized by a dense network of water bodies and wetlands within the t18n r6w and t17n r6w townships. The hydrology of this region is dominated by the meandering E Fork the Forks, which winds through a terrain filled with countless unnamed ponds and smaller lakes. To the south, larger permanent bodies like Tanjoga Lake and Fishnet Lake provide significant landmarks in an otherwise saturated environment. This 2017 survey reflects the remote character of the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, showing a complete absence of roads or permanent settlements, where the natural drainage patterns of the flats dictate the geography. The map is a precise record of the complex lacustrine and riverine systems that define this part of the Alaskan wilderness.
