About this map

Yukon Flats dominate this landscape within the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge, where a network of water and seasonal pathways defines human presence. The Hadweenzic River meanders through the northeast, carving a complex pattern of wetlands and channels typical of this subarctic basin. Settlement is limited to isolated structures connected by the Winter Trail, which provides critical transit across the low-lying terrain when the ground is frozen.

Several specific outposts, including Thirtytwo Mile Cabin and Twentyfour Mile Cabin, are positioned near the creeks that bear their names, such as Thirtytwo Mile Creek. These locations suggest a reliance on the drainage systems for navigation and subsistence. To the west, the elevation rises toward Twentynine Mile Ridge, offering a distinct contrast to the surrounding marshy flats. The inclusion of Fourteenmile Cabin further illustrates the distance-based naming convention common to the region's historic trail networks.
